• The Heart of the Kimberly

    July 14, 2024 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 32 °C

    From Manning Gorge we go deep into the heart of the Kimberly region. Mt Elizabeth Station is the heart of the Kimberley region in Western Australia. Located not far off the iconic Rocky, dusty bumpy, Gibb River Road. Mt Elizabeth is a half-million acre, fully operational cattle station. It also runs a tourism enterprise, offering accommodation, camping, meals and station life.
    It is owned and operated by the Burton family, who have been Kimberley pastoralists for over thirty years and runs approximately 6000 head of cattle for the Burton Beef Company, which supplies Kimberley beef to the local area!
    Andrew had his first taste of Kimberly beef here. You can buy and bbq your own. His assessment is “ I think there is nothing better than the good old grass fed poll short horn from Gamboola”! Haha. Of course he was always going to say that.
    Another great swimming hole, check out my pics. It’s well worth the visit into this station, which is a bit of an oasis after the rough and tumble dusty Gibb River road.
