Allan,
There are many different ways you could take from
Adelaide to
Broome. It all depends on what you want to see and do, what sort of roads you are happy travelling on and how much time you have to travel.
So far you've been given lots of ideas..so here's another:
You could head to Alice via
Coober Pedy and continue on the Stuart Highway to Dunmarra then head west on the Buchanan/Buntine & Duncan Highways through Top Springs to
Halls Creek. This brings you in past Sawpit
Gorge (
good camp spot) and
Old Halls Creek.
From there you could head to the Bungle Bungles and
Kununurra, visit
Wyndham then the
Gibb River Road to
Derby and
Broome. After visiting
Broome you could then head to
Fitzroy Crossing then return to
Halls Creek and down the Tanami to
Alice Springs and back
home to
Adelaide.
You could also head across the Nullabor to Kalgoorlie up to Leinster, then to
Meekatharra and north to
Newman. From
Newman you could head to
Marble Bar then the coast to 80 Mile Beach and on to
Broome...from
Broome you could do a loop of the
Gibb River Road,
Kununurra, Bungle Bungles to
Halls Creek then down the Tanami and
home.....
Or you could combine any of those suggestions with the suggestions you've already received and come up with a new idea. The possibilities are many.
There are many
blogs and trek notes on EO with
places to see in the
Kimberley and on the
Gibb River Road. Whichever way you go, you'll enjoy.
Best wishes
Viv
