One of the best places I’ve been to in Australia was Chambers Gorge on El Questro station in the Kimberly and now Cobbold Gorge is right up there with it.
The road in is dirt but not too badly corrugated except in parts. Unfortunately I cracked my windscreen when a numbnut drove past at a hundred miles an hour. Did a couple of 4×4 creek crossings but nothing too deep or long.
The resort at the gorge is well set out beside a small lake with free kayaking. There’s a restaurant, bar, infinity pool, spa and swim up bar.
We obviously arrived at “celebrity” holiday time as Bob Katter was there as well as Josh Thomas the comedian.
Took off that afternoon on a 3 hour tour. A little bus took us to a stop near the water
where we boarded a very quiet motorised flat bottomed boat to cruise the gorge.
After the boat trip we did a bush walk up to the top of the gorge where we crossed a glass bridge (after putting surgery socks over our boots to stop scratching on the glass).
And, of course, there’s one in every crowd.
A walk back to the bus, played “spot a croc” on the way and our fabulous 3 hour tour was over.
I absolutely love this place!
