Karijini National Park Oct 14 Fern Pool

WOW WOW What a wonderful place!!!
We had not heard anything about this place until we were in the Northern Territory and met people who said we should definitely visit.
Dale Gorge
Swimming in Fern Pool
We headed towards the park just south of Port Hedland and all you see are Road Trains from the mines and mining vehicles.
The park is nearly as big as the  Kakadus (nearly 500,000 sq kms) and has 2 main areas that are available for people to hike and visit. We drove to Dale Campground where there is the Dale Gorge which has 3 areas to see.
We hiked to the Fortescue Falls and the Fern Pool on our arrival. It was sooooo hot so the fact we could swim in the pools was great. The scenery ,the formation of the starta iron ore rock and colours was incredible. We hiked down into the gorge and along to the Fern Pool which was just lovely.
