达尔文至珀斯第2天–凯瑟琳经尼特鲁克至库努纳拉

Day 2, driving from Katherine, NT to Kununurra, WA is long but pretty amazing. I thought I’d start with a quick summary of the adventure:

  1. An early start to go on the sunrise cruise at Nitmiluk (Katherine Gorge).
  2. Headed West towards the WA border.
  3. Stopped at Victoria Crossing roadhouse for fuel.
  4. Drove through Timber Creek.
  5. Crossed the WA/NT border and had our van checked at the quarantine station
  6. Turned off to Lake Argyle and checked out the lookout and shop there.
  7. Got to Kununurra, got a few more groceries, checked into the Hidden Valley caravan park and then went to Miramar National Park to see the striped hive formations there.
  8. Back to the caravan park for dinner and bed.

We covered about 620km’s, so it was a pretty long day, and there isn’t much of anything along the road. The sunrise cruise at Nitmiluk though was fantastic and well worth doing.

14天达尔文至珀斯自驾游行程

So, we flew to Darwin, hired a camper van and road tripped to Perth following as close as we could to the coastline within the limitations of the van that required we only use sealed roads with some small exceptions. There are a lot of unsealed roads in the Northern Territory and Western Australia, so there are a lot of places we had to miss, but at the same time, 2 weeks or 14 days is not a huge amount of time to do the road trip in either. We didn’t really have the time to have done any more than we did. Our original itinerary actually did have more in it but we had to revise some parts of it due to time constraints and availability of the Horizontal Falls Tours as well as doing extra things we saw along the way. In fact, if you do your research, a lot of people would recommend taking a lot more time to do this trip than we did. However, if you really want to do it, are used to driving long distances, and are willing to pack as much in as possible, then it is possible to see and do an awful lot. In short, there is a LOT to do, so consider this just a portion of what you could do and see if you really want to push it and pack everything in you can.

需要注意的一点是,这里的大概行驶时间只是开车,不包括沿途的站点或绕道而行。那些增加了更多的时间,有时很多!
