FAQ

Is the El Questro Gorge Walk difficult?

The El Questro Gorge Walk is one of the more challenging but also most spectacular Kimberley hikes. The first part of the walk is fairly easy, but passing the halfway pool will require you to swim and climb up a 3m tall boulder. From there, you will have to climb more rocks and walls. This could be difficult for those lacking upper strength or for young children.

FAQ

How long is the El Questro Gorge Walk?

The El Questro Gorge Walk is 7.2 km long. Although more challenging, this is a fun walk through the narrow gorge with steep rock walls. It takes hikers anywhere between 3 to 5 hours to complete. For those wanting to avoid boulder climbing, there is the option to return after reaching the halfway pool. If you have the time and the upper body strength, it's definitely worth continuing all the way to the El Questro Waterfall and plunge pool.
