Karijini National Park Transport

Getting there & away

Most travellers will make their way here on their own wheels, the best way to explore the region. Access to the Karijini National Park is via Karijini Dr, which leaves the Great Northern Hwy 226km south of Port Hedland and 162km northwest of Newman. Greyhound buses stop at the Auski Tourist Village, 35km north of the turn-off, on Saturday.

The unsealed Pilbara Rail Rd takes you between Tom Price and Karratha, but it’s a private road and you must get a (free) permit from the visitors centres at Tom Price (08-9188 1112; 497 Sirus St) or Karratha (08-9144 4600; Karratha Rd).
