Kalamina Gorge

Off Banjima Dr West, Karijini National Park, 6751

Kalamina Gorge is the shallowest of Karijini’s gorges and makes a great introduction to the park’s landscapes. From the car park, a short walk brings you to a lookout over the gorge before the trail descends into the gorge floor.

Walking Trails

The descent into the gorge is via a set of roughly hewn steps, leading to a small permanent pool fed by a seasonal waterfall. To explore further, the trail continues through the gorge, following the stream past rock pools and banded rock walls to Rock Arch Pool. The walk involves stream crossings and some ledge walking, but overall it’s one of the more accessible gorge trails. Allow 30 minutes return to Kalamina Gorge Pool, or up to 3 hours return for the full walk.

Visitor Information

The car park has an information shelter, drinking water, and toilets.
