 Description of Barnett River Gorge Lower Carpark
Camp here with a van as the last 500m is rougher. It's only a 15min walk to the first pool and the wildlife and greenery that water brings.

Junction,Intersection,Turn Off 
Barnett River Gorge is a spectacular place to visit. The turnoff to Barnett River Gorge is marked 3km, however there are quite a few tracks, mostly winding, and no more signs to indicate which to take. If you are using digital mapping software, you will see the Barnett River runs pretty much parallel to the GRR. The gorge itself is to the right.
