El Questro; more views & Emma Gorge

This place is amazing for views and sunsets, and Emma Gorge is another spectacular swimming hole. I never realised there would be quite do much swimming up here in the Kmberley, in cool clear water. 


The view from Branko's Lookout, an expanse of empty land


When they say 'no swimming' it's for a really good reason !



A truly spectacular boab tree, on the way back from Branko's Lookout

We had a lovely meal at the Steakhouse, easily the match for many meals in Perth and in a lush, river setting. The coffee was good from the bar as well, not to mention cold beer. 

Emma Gorge was another beautiful swimming hole, a bit of a scramble to get up there but a huge swimming hole surrounded on three sides by cliffs, with warm thermal water dropping down in some areas. Lush greenery everywhere, ferns flourishing. 


Quite a few people up there, but plenty of room for everyone. Cool water, perfect after the walk up


I just couldn't get decent photographs, too much contrast. I'll rely on professional photographs to show the true beast of this place
