Itinerary
Day 1: Day 1 | 6 Kilometres
Pass By: Cape Range National Park, Yardie Creek Road, Exmouth Exmouth Region, Western Australia 6707 Australia
We pick you up from your accommodation between 8.00-8.30 am. Then It’s off to our rendezvous point to fit you out for your overnight trek, then make our way to Cape Range National Park, stopping off at Milyering Visitor Centre for a quick break before our trek begins. Once at our start point, it’s time for a safety brief and to ensure our packs are snug.
Our first steps take us alongside picturesque Yardie Creek Gorge; as we ascend the Range, we keep a keen eye out for the rare Black Flanked Rock Wallabies and the myriad of birdlife that call this place home. It’s not long at all till we glance back and enjoy sweeping views of Ningaloo Reef and Cape Range stretching away into the distance.
We spend the rest of the day exploring the upper reaches of Yardie Creek and make our way to the top of the Range to camp.
Stop At: Ningaloo, Ningaloo, Western Australia
Camp
Once packs are off, camp is set, and meals cooked, we spend the evening spotting for Humpback Whales and enjoy the changing colours as the sun sets below the horizon. You will never forget your night in this remote corner of Western Australia, atop Cape Range overlooking Ningaloo Reef and the Indian Ocean with the Milky Way above.

Stop At: Ningaloo Reef, Off the North West Cape Yardie Creek Rd Ningaloo Marine Park, Exmouth Region, Ningaloo, Western Australia 6707 Australia
Rising with the sun, we enjoy a hearty breakfast and continue with our adventure. Making our way down through ancient wave-cut sandstone terraces, we cross the coastal plains where it’s not uncommon to see Western Grey Kangaroos, Dingoes, or perhaps the shy but spiky Short Beaked Echidna.
Once over the coastal dunes, it’s not long till our boots are off, and we’re swimming in the refreshing crystal clear waters of the Ningaloo lagoon. We then beach-comb our way along pristine coastline and back to our waiting vehicle to deliver us safely back to Exmouth.
