The Kimberley, the people and the landscape In the Kimbeley you will be rewarded with a sense of achievement, adventure and a breathless feelng that nothing else matters. Enjoy while travelling in one of the world’s oldest living landscapes and . Culture Encountering the living culture of the Kimberley’s traditional Aboriginal owners, who make up almost half of the region’s population, is one of the most interesting and rewarding experiences to have. The concept of “Dreaming” will be mentioned on numerous occasions. This describes a creation period when ancestral beings shped the landscape wherever they went, yet the Dreaming (Dream Time) is not part of the past, it lies within the present and will determine the future. The spiritual presence of their ancestral beings are the source of all knowledge, stories and ceremonies. Many story are displayed at ancient rock art sites in the Kimberley. Wildlife An incredible variety of wildlife thrives in WA. The birdlife are emence, from brolga, to parrots, jabiru to kite, eagles, owls, honeyeaters and bowerbirds. Some mammals such as echidnas, bandicoots, bilbies and quolls will be hard to spot, but kangarros, wallabies will be easily spotted, mostly at dusk and dawn. Reptiles like the goannas, geckos, water monitors and frillneck lizards are to be seen. Freshwater crocodiles is common in the Kimberley, though not considered dangerous, their larger saltwater species are very dangerous and found in the tidal rivers, mangroves and billabongs. From June to Septem- ber the humbpack whales migrate north for valving season. Kimberley Climate Winter Sunny days with temperatures from 15-30 degrees Celcius inland. Purnululu’s temperatures are colder at night. June - August Spring Experience temperatures from 21-42 degrees Celcius, with dry landscapes and odd afternoon showers at time. November can be one of the hottest months of the year and get stormy and very humid. September - November Summer Called the Wet Season, with temperatures between 25-40 degrees Celcius. The rainfall is unpredictable, heavy at times and the air is very humid. Grass, wild flowers and blooms are seen. December - March Autumn As rainfall gets less and stop the rivers start dropping and locals can start navigate more easily. May is a great time to see the waterfalls and start exploring the Kimberley. April - May “Great place to stay, Colin is very knowledgeable about the area and great fun. A must visit if travelling up north. The Kimberley Gorges give you that sense of grandeur that no European city can do. Breathe the fresh air, really see the stars they are so close you can touch them. Has to be on your bucket list. Go - you won’t regret it, and you will return as you have been kissed by its beauty.”
