Day-by-day delights with local insights
Welcome to Kununurra! Enjoy the afternoon at your leisure, exploring the vibrant gateway to the East Kimberley. The next day your clients will discover the magnificent three-tiered waterfall of Punamii-Uunpuu (Mitchell Falls) by air and land.
Fly over the mesmerising tidal patterns surrounding Wyndham in a fixed-wing aircraft before tracking towards the pristine Kimberley coastline. Land at the Mitchell Plateau airstrip for a helicopter transfer to Mitchell Falls campground where fit and experienced hikers can enjoy a guided 4.5km hike to the top of Punamii-Uunpuu, discovering ancient rock art and waterholes along the way.
Alternatively, clients can opt for a short helicopter transfer to the top for more time at the falls. Enjoy a refreshing swim and soak up the impressive sights before returning to the airstrip by helicopter and back to Kununurra by plane.
