First off stay at the campsite at Dales Gorge and base yourself there. Excellent camp but no showers just toilets,very clean as the camp is looked after by the Camp Host. There is a fee to enter the park and a nightly fee at Dales but affordable. There are sections at the camp that don't allow generators but plenty of spots for generator use .

Then branch out from there to see all the gorges. The cultural centre has all the info you will need or camp hosts will help you. Bitumen into Dales Gorge but other roads are dirt and well maintained.

Enjoy. It's one of our favourite places.

Pam

Dales gorge is where to camp unless you want all the yuppee facilities at the commercial camp ground. At least Dales gorge has seale d access. You could stay there for weeks and not see everything.

Stayed at Dales Gorge earlier this year - loved it! The gravel roads in the park were a bit rough, so allow a bit of extra time. Also, a shower is available at the Visitors Centre.

There is no food or fuel available in the park, I had to go into Tom Price when I needed fuel, but tied it in with a run to Hammersley Gorge, which I thought was terrific!

Wasn that area in 08, all the gorges are great, well worth it.

Millstream is very good as well.

 That's a bit of an understatement, they were as rough as guts in June.

Loved Karijini, loved Dales campground, had a great time looking at the other gorges, and ended up with a very red-dusty Prado!

That is a report on my visit to Karijini, one of the best times during the Round Australia Trip.

Vic mentioned it previously but it is not always easy to hone in on the specific times although there is a search box at the top right.
