Karijini - Hancock, Weano and Knox Gorge

Today was a big day of walking and exploring gorges. We had been told that the water was a lot colder in this part of Karijini than in Dales Gorge so we came prepared with wetsuits for the kids and Kelly. We had also bought water shoes for the whole family at the visitors centre.

We started with Hancock Gorge leading to Kermit's Pool with some sections of traversing along the cliff walls above pools and some straddling across the stream with arms and legs against each wall of the gorge. Kermit's Pool was very fresh at the end but with amazing views further along the gorge.

We grabbed some lunch and then headed straight to Weano Gorge. There were some more adventurous scrambles and then beautiful Handrail Pool at the end after clambering down the metal handrail.

We then headed to the Eco retreat for a treat and then a third walk for the day at Knox Gorge which had wider but taller cliffs.

After a massive day we headed back to Dales Campground for a well earned rest and dinner.Les mer
