*Exploring El Questro Station: The Final Stop on the Gibb River Road 🌴🚙*
This week, we visit the iconic *El Questro Station*, our last major stop on the *Gibb River Road*. With the station closing for the season, we cut our Gibb trip short to ensure we didn’t miss this legendary destination—and it didn’t disappoint!
*Arrival at El Questro*
🏞️ After rattling along the Gibb, the 25km of smooth bitumen from the Pentecost River to El Questro felt like bliss. Once a privately owned cattle station, El Questro is now part of the G’Day Caravan Parks group.
Our first stop was the famous *Zebedee Springs*, with year-round water temperatures of 32°C. Though we planned for a quick dip, we ended up relaxing until nearly 12 PM when private tours take over the springs.
*Adventuring Through the Gorges*
💧 Amalia Gorge: A scenic (and hot!) walk led us to a peaceful waterhole at the end of the track. While the waterfall wasn’t flowing, the gorge’s beauty made it worth the hike.
💧 El Questro Gorge: The highlight of our Gibb trip! To access this stunning gorge, we traversed a 1m-deep water crossing, which the Mog handled like a champ. (Some other 4WDs weren’t so lucky and spent days drying out their footwells.) Words can’t do the gorge justice, so be sure to watch the video for raw, unfiltered footage.
*Lookouts and Wildlife*
☀️ At Pigeon Hole Lookout, we caught a breathtaking sunrise and spotted a massive saltwater crocodile in the river below. The steep, rough track up was even more daunting in daylight!
🏞️ Branco’s Lookout: Near the luxurious (and pricey) Homestead, the route included a rocky Chamberlain River crossing with incredible views.
*Farewell to El Questro*
With El Questro closing for the season, we made time for one last dip in Zebedee Springs before heading back. After an unexpected encounter with a locked gate (oops!), we made it out and returned to the Pentecost River, ready to kick off our next adventure: the Karunjie Track.
