Between Halls Creek and Fitzroy Crossing lies a hidden gem – the Mimbi Caves. This 100% Indigenous-owned and operated tour offers a glimpse into the Kimberley's underground wonders.

Immerse yourself in Aboriginal history on a 2-hour tour through Mimbi Caves, led by a Gooniyandi guide who will unveil the stories behind the ancient rock art and the significance of these formations. Accessible by 2WD, the tour departs at Monday to Saturday at 8AM with roll call at 7:45AM and also at at 2PM on Monday to Thursday and Saturday (excluding Friday). This tour is illuminated by torch and at the conclusion you will feed on a delightful morning tea. Enjoy a cup of tea and damper, a traditional Australian bush bread, while your guide shares captivating stories that transport you back in time to when Aboriginal people called these caves home.

Another site to check out is the Geikie Gorge, where the river cuts its way and produces amazing the gorge characterised by multi-coloured cliffs and abundant wildlife, so plan according to your interest. Experiencing the gorge can be done through 3 ways. Jarrahmbayah trail and Lirrgi trail by foot or go by boat, the most popular option. Jarrahmbayah trail is a moderate 4.4 kilometre return trail along the base of one of the gorge walls offering stunning views and a chance to experience the landscape by foot. Lirrgi trail is an easy 1.75 kilometre loop that meanders through but does not offer direct views of the gorges, is a pleasant walk for those seeking a shorter option. Moreover, this is a famous place for catching 'Balga' freshwater barramundi.

After your day of exploring, unwind at the Mimbi Campground. Modern amenities, including hot showers and a barbecue shelter, ensure a comfortable stay. Secluded campsites offer a chance to connect with nature under the vast Kimberley sky.
