WHAT TO DO & SEE IN KUNUNURRA
HOW TO GET TO KUNUNURRA
Your Greyhound bus to Kununurra stops at the Ord River Roadhouse on Messmate Way.
There are no shortage of bush walks to embark on and scenic attractions to explore on foot in Kununurra and the surrounding region, but they tend to be fairly spread out, and some of the most popular attractions – like Lake Argyle and the Bungle Bungle Ranges – are located well outside town.
Kununurra does not have a public transport system. Most of the major car rental outfits can be found in town (you’ll need a 4WD to access many of the local attractions), but your best option for seeing the sights would be to book tours through the Kununurra Visitor Centre at 75 Coolibah Drive, next to the big windmill.
If possible, try to time your trip to be outside the wettest months of the year (January and February), because although the raging waterfalls and roaring rivers look spectacular, tours and road access are limited during this time. Contact the Visitor Centre on (08) 9168 1177 for up-to-date information on tours and road conditions.
