What To Expect

Get an early start to your day with hotel pickup in Broome and transfer to the airport.

Have breakfast at the terminal before your departure, then board your fixed-wing airplane. From the large viewing windows, take in views of the breathtaking Windjana Gorge. Look for marine life that has been fossilized in the limestone walls of the gorge.

Continue over the King Leopold Ranges, open savannah woodlands, and dry landscapes. Your pilot lands the plane so you can take a short bush walk topped off with a refreshing dip in a natural pool at Bell Gorge.

Your pilot also shows you Horizontal Falls, which is known for its unusual rapid tidal movement. Next, check out the Thousand Islands of the Buccaneer Archipelago, and land at Cape Leveque for lunch and afternoon tea. Take in views of the red cliffs of Cape Leveque, and have time to hit the beach, and swim in the Indian Ocean.

Return to Broome via the coast, passing over Pender Bay, Beagle Bay, Carnot Bay, James Price Point, Willie Creek, and Cable Beach. Your tour ends with transfer to your hotel at the end of the day.

Windjana Gorge

Departing Broome, you head over the township of Broome passing Chinatown, Roebuck Bay and surrounds. Your flight path takes you over Malcolm Douglas Crocodile farm and the Broome Road before you head towards the open landscape of the Kimberley. As you fly past the millions of hectares of station land, rich in Aboriginal Heritage, your pilot will entertain you with stories and the history of the area, before entering the area known as the King Leopold Ranges on your descent into Windjana Gorge. The King Leopold Ranges extend for three hundred kilometres from Walcott Inlet in the West to approximately one hundred kilometres from Halls Creek in the East. The ranges consist of long, rugged, spinifex-covered ridges and escarpments. Mount Ord at nine hundred and forty seven metres above sea level and Mount Broome at nine hundred and thirty five metres are the highest peaks in the range. After landing at Windjana Gorge Airstrip you will take a short drive through the amazing Windjana Gorge where you will see a myriad of natural wildlife and view the amazing and ever present stares of Windjana’s most revered occupant, the Johnson River Crocodile. The walls of Windjana Gorge rise abruptly from the wide alluvial floodplain of the Lennard River, reaching approximately one hundred metres high in some places. The three and a half kilometre long gorge cuts through the limestone of the Napier Range, part of an ancient barrier reef which can also be seen at Geikie Gorge and Tunnel Creek National Parks.

1 hour • Admission Ticket Included

Bell Gorge

After an hour spent at Windjana you take to the skies again for a short flight over the King Leopold Range to the remote Silent Grove airstrip for another quick drive through the Kimberley outback, dotted with many native boab trees to Bell Gorge. Once at Bell Gorge there will be a short, steep one kilometre walk to the top of the waterfall. This walk is not for the faint hearted but is well worth it once you meet the refreshing pool that feeds the waterfall. Once at the top of the waterfall there is a chance for swimming, relaxing and amazing photo opportunities. For the daring, there is another one kilometre harsh walk to the base of the waterfall where an amazing fresh water pool is awaiting your arrival. Once you are feeling relaxed and refreshed from your swim at Bell Gorge, you then take off for a another flight over the King Leopold Ranges into Mt Hart Station.
