Parks and the outdoors in Kununurra

1. See

   Mirima National Park

   The highlight is the "Hidden Valley" of striking sandstone formations, often described as a miniature Bungle Bungles, with walking trails of 0.5 to 4 km. The rest of the park is open bushland with unmarked trails winding around the rocks and boab trees. You can hike into it free from anywhere along the north side of Victoria Hwy, eg from the gated service road opposite Hibiscus Drive - walk up the gravel road past the water tank. You need a sense of direction to get out again, and don't venture out on ledges as the brittle rocks may break.

   PumpHouse

   Stylish eatery in a former pumphouse for the Ord River irrigation scheme, serving modern Australian cuisine. Sit in the cavernous interior or on the riverside deck watching the crocs swim by.

3. Do

   Lake Kununurra Golf Club

   Set on the banks of the lake 2 km west of town and striking through some fairly swampy areas, this 18-hole course makes avoiding water hazards a definite challenge. Greens are well maintained but fairways give little relief from the surrounding natural terrain. You'd be hard pressed to find a more isolated course of this standard.

4. Buy Not mapped

   Kimberley Fine Diamonds

   Their signature gemstone is the pink diamond - Lake Argyle Mine was the world's main source until it closed in 2020. The colour is thought to arise from shearing stress during formation, not altered mineral content.

5. Eat Not mapped

   Ord River Roadhouse

   Petrol station serving fast food. Usually uninspiring, and it's only as clean as the last troupe of visitors, but it's there when you need it.
