Gibb River Road

What travelers say:

Australia has a lot of four-drive cross-country routes, and Gibb River Road, legendary, like a red dragon, across the desolate heart of Kimberley, red dust flying, wading through the mountains, male hormones are flying all over the sky. The Australian Tourism Board has named this road "Australia's greatest four-wheel drive cross-country adventure." Lonely Planet rated the Kimberley region as one of the only remaining wastelands on Earth. There are many paradise-like national parks, with millions of years of reefs, caves and indigenous cultures. This 660-kilometer dirt road runs through remote villages, and you can enjoy the magnificent scenery along the road, which will make you leave your car from time to time and explore the freshwater canyon. People would affectionately call it Gibb, which was originally built to drive cattle from Wyndham to Derby. Each cattle ranch has beautiful rivers and canyons, including: Erquist Ranch-Chamberlain and Emma Canyon, Barnett Mountain Ranch-Manning Canyon Waterfall Walk, Leopold King Nature Conservation Park-Bell Canyon, The Gibb River cattle ranch - Barnett River Canyon and Mornington Wilderness Park - Diamond Canyon. The road signs will also change as the area is still privately owned by cattle ranch and indigenous communities. If you have smelled the Kimberley area, the canyon is pure, air that has not stained the human breath, stroked the smooth, red laminated rock, climbed the big tree in the horizontal canyon, pulled up a branch, learned the ape Taishan swing past, experienced this life like a world apart. Great Gibb River Road, no hype, no appearance in any article of the Chinese, but can not hide his greatness in the slightest. If Route 66 represents the spirit of the United States, I think this 660-kilometer-long red road represents the spirit of Tai O Village, low-key, primitive nature, indisputable, and harmonious coexistence with the planet. Here, you can also see the legendary baobab tree, in Australia, this tree is called Bottle Tree "wine bottle tree". Unlike Madagascar's baobab tree, Australia's is more like a wine bottle, not as big and tall as Madagascar, but cute. Watching the "Baobab Tree Sunset" with your little prince in the Kimberley area will be especially beautiful. At night, write your own unique travel memoir under the night sky of Kimberley.
