days. With no shops or fuel stations along the way, travellers must carry all
necessary provisions. Just Over the Hills Tours can offer guidance on vehicle
requirements, ensuring a trip-ready setup, including a suspension lift, quality
tyres, and ample fuel capacity.

campfire, immerse yourself in the rich heritage of the region. Anglers will
delight in the opportunity to fish in pristine river systems, chasing the
elusive barramundi for an authentic outback meal.

The Journey

The tour spans from Home Valley Station on the Gibb River Road to the junction of the
Carson River track and Kulumburu Road offer flexibility in direction.
Whether starting from the north or south, prepare for a rugged adventure that
begins with the exhilarating Durack River crossing.
