G'day
We are off to the
Kimberley in winter in a 4WD camper and would appreciate opinions on the best map(s) covering the area from
Derby along the
Gibb River Road (including the
Mitchell Plateau) to
Wyndham and back along the Gt Northern Highway to
Broome (including the National Parks like
Tunnel Creek and Geike
Gorge).
Thanks for the help. Peter

Hema map: The
Kimberley.
You should also invest in Viv and Ron Moon's Adeventurers Guide to the
Kimberley.
Available from the
Derby and
Kununurra Info Centres and updated at the start of each tourist season is a cheap booklet outlining camping
places, where fuel, gas and stores available, current camping prices etc. it is a great resource. We ordered ours over the phone and it was sent about May.

Hi Peter, i purchased my maps and books here on EO; Ron & Viv Moon's book (good, although out of date) and Hema Map The
Kimberley featuring the
Gibb River Road. I also have Hema The
Kimberley Atlas and Guide which includes the same map through its pages of
information, but i can't be sure now if i purchased it here or i was given it. Not that you can get lost if you follow the droves of tourists!

Hi Peter
I have just been going through my 2008 trip
blogs (as on my blog here), and the
Kimberley tour has to rank as our best ever trip.
