Keep River National Park

Keep River National Park is a small park near the NT/WA border. It’s the start of the Kimberley so there are some small sandstone beehive rock formations similar to the Bungle Bungle formations. The campground is about 40kms into the park.

 The temperatures are very hot during the day – so we started our rides while it was still dark (using our Ay-up lights). Our first ride was to Gurrandalng camping area where there was a 2km walk that had magnificent views of the sandstone rock formations (Rients’ photographs). There were also lots of interesting plants along the way (Donna’s photographs). Our second ride was to the Jenamoom walk – which runs along the banks of the Keep River to an aboriginal site used by the Miriwoong people for shelter. We did the Jarnem walk from our campsite before packing up the ute and heading off to Kununurra.
