Tunnel Creek National Park

Tunnel Creek National Park is located in the Kimberley Region of Western Australia and is approximately 91 hectares. It is 115 kilometres from Fitzroy Crossing, 180 kilometres from Derby and 30 kilometres south-east of Windjana Gorge and is accessible by 59 kilometres of unsealed Gibb River Beef Road. There are four wheel drive day trips from Derby (subject to numbers).

Tunnel Creek flows through a water worn tunnel beneath the limestone of the Napier Range, part of the 375 to 350 million year old Devonian Reef system. You can walk 750 metres through the tunnel to the other side of Napier Range, wading through several permanent pools and watching for bats and the stalactites that descend from the roof in many places. Freshwater crocodiles are occasionally found in the pools. Take a torch, wear sneakers and be prepared to get wet and possibly cold.

Vegetation in the park consists of Boab and paper bark trees and sand and water goanna, wallaby, bats, herons and owls can be seen.
