Tom Price to Karijini National Park

Karratha, Western Australia

If you camped at Millstream, rise early and you will be rewarded with amazing wildlife. The journey from Millstream to Karijini National Park is just three and a half hours by unsealed road to Hamersley Gorge and Spa Pool. A two-hour drive using a sealed road and the RTIO Access Road for which you will need a permit, you will arrive in Tom Price. Note: most roads within the Karijini National Park are unsealed and care is needed. Check your hire vehicle's conditions of use. If you’re starting in Tom Price today, stock up on fuel, food, water and a picnic lunch before driving out to Karijini, passing Mount Bruce – Western Australia’s second-highest peak. Did you know the tallest 12 peaks in Western Australia are all in the Pilbara? Make your first stop at the Karijini Visitor Centre on Banjima Drive (a two-hour drive from Tom Price). The centre is fascinating, both in its design and interpretive displays that share the region’s natural history and cultural evolution. Continue on to Dales Gorge for a picnic lunch overlooking Fortescue Falls. Explore picturesque Dales Gorge at your leisure. Take a dip in Fern Pool or follow the four-kilometre trail (two hours return) from Fortescue Falls to Circular Pool for a refreshing swim. Accommodation is available at Dales Campground if you have your own caravan or camper or book into the Karijini Eco Retreat which is on Weano Gorge Road (a one-hour drive from Dales.) Note: advance booking is advised.
