Karajini (Day 2)

We once again were rewarded by narrow breathtaking gorges, hidden pools, waterfalls and red rocky ranges. We saw Dales Gorge, Circular pool , Fern pool and Fortesque falls. Circular pool is at the base of Dales Gorge and for those a lot fitter and younger than ourselves you could make your way down through the gorge to reach the circular pool which as it's name suggests is a round pool of no doubt very cold water. When we looked down from the lookout , we could see a girl swimming in the pool- it would have been very cold water to brave a swim. If you look at our photo of the circular shaped pool at the bottom of the gorge you can see the swimmer in a white bathing suit.
We also visited the award winning Visitors Center with interactive displays that dealt with the cultural aspects of the aboriginal people, their connection to the land, country, family and their interaction with the pastoralists. All wonderfully presented.
On entering the unique styled building we were greeted with a sign which initially written in aboriginal language then in English had these beautiful words -

There were also geological, flora and fauna displays in relation to the area. In the evening we watched the sunset over our red rocky rangers we had come to love.Читать далее
