Australia´s North West Holiday Planner 2024
Western Australia’s most northerly town, historic Wyndham typifies the character and spirit of the Kimberley. Situated on the Cambridge Gulf where the King, Pentecost, Durack, Forrest and Ord rivers meet, and surrounded by some of the most spectacular landforms, rivers and wetlands in the Kimberley, Wyndham is an artist’s and photographer’s paradise. • Drive up the Bastion to the Five Rivers Lookout to take in breathtaking panoramic views and stunning sunsets. • With links to the Halls Creek gold rush, the pastoral industry along the Gibb River Road, the overland telegraph, early aviation and the establishment of the Royal Flying Doctors, Wyndham has a fascinating heritage - call into the Wyndham Museum for more insight. • Step back in time on the Wyndham Port Heritage Trail walk/drive. • Wyndham’s three cemeteries - the Pioneer, Gully and Afghan Cameleers’ cemeteries - provide an insight into Wyndham’s eclectic past. • Thought to be around 2000 years old, marvel at the ’biggest boab in captivity’ at the caravan park. • View the large Dreamtime statues on Koolama Street and the ’Big Croc’ in the main street of Wyndham. • Walk or fish off the jetty, known as Anthon’s Landing.
