Starting from the dirt car park on Gibb River Road, Wunaamin Miliwundi Ranges, this return walk takes you to Galvans Gorge and back. This is a little gem of a walk that offers walkers a little waterfall and a pool to have a dip and clean the dust off. The gorge has a reflective, beautiful pool that is accompanied by beautiful treens and bush around that feels and looks like a little oasis. There is a rocky, uneven section, but it's well worth the little effort for such a beauty. Let us begin by acknowledging the Traditional Custodians of the land on which we travel today, and pay our respects to their Elders past and present.
