Charnley River Station

Broome & The Kimberley


Now under the management of the Australian Wildlife Conservancy, this historic station, 44km north of the Gibb, offers shady, grassy campsites and excellent birdwatching. Don't miss the stunning, multi-tiered Grevillea Gorge and adjacent Lily Pools.

There's also Dillie Gorge and Donkey Pools, the latter a set of three increasingly enticing pools about 5km from camp. The Twitchers' Way walking trail (1.5km) starts behind the office and leads to a nice swimming hole.
