Day 4 - El Questro Wilderness Park

Today we went on a full day tour of the El Questro Wilderness Park. We started with a guided hike up Emma Gorge. After Karijini it was an easy hike. The waterfall and pool at the end of the hike was magnificent. The water was cool but not freezing as at Karijini.

 

 

Next stop was at the warm Zebedee Springs. These are amazing. The water runs out of the rocks at 28 - 32C and trickles through palm lined rock pools. The most amazing thing about the pools is that they are totally natural yet form about a dozen pools to relax in.

 

It was then back to El Questro Station Steakhouse for lunch. After lunch we went on to a boat cruise of the Chamberlin Gorge. Apparently 14 freshwater crocs and 1 salty live there but we did not get to see any. We did see some aboriginal rock paintings and the magnificent walls of the Chamberlin Gorge.

The tour then dropped us at Emma Gorge for our last night at El Questro. Accommodation at Emma Gorge is permanent safari tents with ensuites. The tents are very comfortable and our front deck overlooked an impressive range.
