Rob & Liz’s 2000 Trip

Our 2000 trip saw us heading to the western half of Australia to complete our circumnavigation of the continent. This trip took in much more of the Australian outback than we experienced during our 1999 trip. This half of Australia is a beautiful part of the country with its rugged landscapes and sensational coastlines.

There were many highlights on this trip and we have attempted to summarise these on a stage by stage basis. What remains as a lasting memory is our time in the Kimberley, the Gibb River Road, Cape Leveque, Kununurra and Broome. What a spectacular part of the Australian outback.

Also not to be missed on a trip like this is the Pilbara. This rugged ancient landscape holds on of the largest deposits of iron ore in the world. It also contains probably one of the most spectacular national parks in Australia, Karijini National Park.
