Kununurra is the perfect base for your Kimberley adventure.
Take a four wheel drive tour, lake and river cruise, light plane or helicopter scenic flights over some of the most spectacular landforms in the world, including the worlds largest operating Diamond Mine - Argyle Diamond Mine and Purnululu National Park, Bungle Bungle Range, or just relax after a day chasing the big Barramundi.
The area rich in pioneering history, well-documented by Dame Mary Durack, the famed Durack Homestead site is now covered by the waters of Lake Argyle, the homestead was reconstructed and is now a fascinating pioneer museum.
Mirima National Park (Hidden Valley)
Located in the Kununurra townsite, it features 300 million year old sandstone cliffs, often referred to as the ‘mini Bungles’.
Parry Lagoons Nature Reserve
A protected bird sanctuary sheltering such species as magpie geese, swamp hens, cranes, dab chicks, pelicans, brolga, 17 varieties of duck and the beautiful elusive jabiru.
Ord River
Typifying the Aboriginal meaning of Kununurra ‘big waters’ or ‘meeting of the waters’, this river is now a permanent body of water since the construction of the Ord Irrigation Scheme. Above the Diversion Dam, it forms Lake Kununurra, a year round mecca for water sport enthusiasts.
Kelly’s Knob Lookout
At 191 metres, Kelly’s Knob Lookout is the highest point immediately around Kununurra. Despite the name it offers great views of the irrigation areas around town and is a good spot to catch the sunset.
Ivanhoe Crossing
13 kilometers from Kununurra, this crossing formed part of the original road from Kununurra to Wyndham. It was flooded when the Diversion Dam was built and is closed to traffic during the wet when the water level is too high for safety. It is a very popular fishing spot.
Zebra Rock
Unique to Kununurra, Zebra Rock can be found in small reef outcrops of stratified claystone of shale in the Ranford Formation. Its age has been placed at nearly 600 million years old.
Lake Argyle Homestead
The reconstructed Argyle Homestead is now a museum acknowledging the early cattle pioneers, particularly the Durack family who established the original homestead. The homestead was built from stones moved from the original homesite which is now under Lake Argyle.
Lake Argyle
The major dam of the Ord Irrigation project is now classified as an inland sea, twenty-three times the size of Sydney Harbour. Cruises operate on the lake - you can see myriads of birds in the wetlands around the mouth of the Ord River
