One of the last true wilderness areas on Earth, Australia's North West is a land of breathtaking contrasts covering billions of years in history and over one million square kilometres. From the sheer canyons of Karijini in the Pilbara to the curious Bungle Bungle Range in the Kimberley, it features some of the most extraordinary outback experiences.
There are several hubs to use as a base for your outback adventure in Australia's north west. Hop on a direct flight to the exotic pearling town of Broome from Perth, Sydney, Melbourne or Brisbane. Fly from Darwin to Kununurra, Broome, Port Hedland and Karratha, or get more choice from Perth, with flights direct to Newman, Paraburdoo, Karratha, Port Hedland, Broome, Derby and Kununurra.
The real beauty of Australia's North West is that it lets you be as adventurous and indulgent or as laid back as you wish.
Walk, climb, swim or just stand and admire the beauty of Karijini, one of Australia's largest and most spectacular national parks, famous for its sheer gorges, waterfalls and cool swimming holes 350 million years in the making.
