Bell Gorge
Immerse yourself in the wilderness at Bell Gorge. Stunning cliffs surround a series of tiered waterholes and after a short hike down to the pool, you can take a dip and swim under the waterfall.

Broome
The gateway to the Kimberley, Broome is home to the sparkling Cable Beach. Explore the town and learn about how pearl diving put Broome on the map. Shop for locally made gifts at the Courthouse Markets. And of course, enjoy the sunset along Cable Beach.
Bungle Bungle Range (Purnululu National Park)
Take the winding road through Purnululu National Park to the beehive domes that make up the Bungle Bungle Range. Get up close with a walk along Piccaninny Creek, through the gorge between the domes and up to Cathedral Gorge. Sunset at the Bungle Bungles is a unique experience; with your back to the sun, watch the colours of the beehive domes change followed by a stay in the luxury tented cabins at APT's Bungle Bungle Wilderness Lodge.
El Questro Wilderness Park
El Questro sprawls across 700,000 acres of the Kimberley at the eastern end of the Gibb River Road. Hike to Emma Gorge for a swim in the chilled waters under a droplet waterfall. Relax and enjoy the healing powers of Zebedee Springs, a permanent natural thermal spring tucked away in a secluded pocket of rainforest.
Horizontal Falls
The Horizontal Falls is a feat of nature. The result of the Kimberley's incredible tides, water appears to squeeze between red cliffs to create a natural waterfall. Take a seaplane flight over the falls, then an up close view through the phenomenal falls on a zodiac.
Mitchell Falls
Discover the beauty of Mitchell Falls, with its tiered waterfalls and indigenous rock art. Hike to the top of the falls and swim in the upper pools. Take a scenic helicopter flight to get the best view (included in some tours). Stay at APT's exclusive Mitchell Falls Wilderness Lodge and relax by the private waterhole, find unique art at the Indigenous art gallery or simply enjoy the natural surrounds.
