The city
Town in the eastern Kimberley region, near the border with the Northern Territory, established in the 1960s with the Ord River irrigation project. It is the base for Lake Argyle, boat trips on the Ord River and Mirima National Park, right beside town. Scenic flights over Purnululu National Park, with the striped domes of the Bungle Bungles, also depart from here — about 250 km away.

The local experience
One of Australia’s largest freshwater reservoirs, formed by the Ord River dam, about 70 km from Kununurra, with islands, freshwater crocodiles and boat tours.
Park of striped sandstone formations beside Kununurra, with gorges, short trails and lookouts over town, similar on a smaller scale to the Bungle Bungles.
