Join us as we head to the very remote, harsh yet beautiful Rudall River National Park.

Situated about 400 km east of Newman in Western Australia's Great Sandy Desert, this is truly one of the most remote wilderness areas in the world. At 1,283,706 hectares, the park is the largest in Western Australia. It is situated between the Great Sandy Desert and Little Sandy Desert and includes the watershed of the Rudall River.

During our time in this remote area we will see many natural wonders, including Kalkan Kalkan Soak, Tjingkulatjatjarra Pool and Desert Queen Baths.

Leaving the Park we head north towards Telfer. The wonders of this area continue with a visit to the Christmas pool area where visits to Billy Dunn's and Jinawanura Caves both of which offer a great chance to see some very good examples of rock art.

On to Carrawine Gorge and the Oakover River which will be our campsite for two nights and will give us plenty of time to really enjoy the natural beauty and birdlife that this magnificent site offers.

We visit the remote waterhole known as Running Waters which is surrounded with paperbarks and offers a fabulous spot to spend a day. Leaving Carrawine behind us we head into Marble Bar for a hot shower and a chance to have a look around the town.
