Western Australia is Australia’s largest state. Home to many beautiful National Parks, gorges and the most spectacular coastline. It’s a firm favourite for Lappers driving around Australia
Wyndham is one of those places you could easily drive past without giving it much thought. It’s a small, historic town in Western Australia’s East Kimberley, about an hour’s drive from Kununurra, and it doesn’t have the polished tourist feel of some other Kimberley destinations. We’d been staying in Kununurra after our Gibb River Road …
Just when we thought we’d put our caravan power problems behind us, we woke up to another flat battery. This time, it was the Patrol! Apparently, anything involving electricity was determined to give us trouble on this trip. Thankfully, we had something much more enjoyable planned while staying in Kununurra. We were heading back to …
After everything that happened on the Gibb River Road, arriving in Kununurra was a relief. We’d been dealing with ongoing caravan power problems, a flat tyre on the Patrol and a damaged water tank fitting, so we were more than ready to spend a few days somewhere we could get things sorted. We also had …

Our caravan power system had been playing up for days, we’d cut our trip short and we were now heading towards Kununurra to get things sorted. After leaving Mt Elizabeth Station, we were hoping for a fairly straightforward drive. We’d …
Our Gibb River Road adventure was continuing, but things weren’t quite going to plan. After three nights at Silent Grove, where we’d explored Bell Gorge and started having serious problems with our caravan power system, we were heading further along the Gibb towards Mount Barnett Roadhouse and Manning Gorge. There was still so much we …
After leaving Windjana Gorge, we were well into our Gibb River Road trip and heading towards our next base at Silent Grove. We’d planned three nights there, which was quite deliberate. We weren’t interested in racing along the Gibb ticking off one gorge after another, so this was going to be one of our slower …
After talking about driving the Gibb River Road for years, it was finally happening. We based ourselves in Derby to do our Horizontal Falls overnight tour and left from Derby in June 2026, caravan in tow and that definite feeling of, we’re actually doing this. The Gibb had been part of our plans and conversations …
Horizontal Falls had been on our bucket list for years, so when we found ourselves in Derby during our travels through the Kimberley in June 2026, we finally decided it was time to do it. We didn’t just want to fly over the Falls, though. If we were going to spend that sort of money, …
