from Port Hedland to Exmouth

After Karijini first back to Port Hedland. Experience shows that you can easily replenish supplies here and then I continue south-west towards Exmouth.
  • Port Hedland

    Located on the coast and Australia's largest transhipment port. Port Hedland is a place with a lot of activity day and night. In the harbor you can see how large seagoing vessels are piloted in and out at high tide and filled with iron ore in the harbor in about 30 hours. You don't have to go here for nature, but watching the activity is also fun.

  • Point Samson

    A peninsula where fishing is great, but also many historical sites nearby where there are remains of the first Europeans here.

  • Roebourne

    A historic place with many restored buildings dating all the way back to the first inhabitants in April 1864. Roebourne is also the entrance to the Millstream-Chichester National Park.

  • Millstream-Chichester National Park

    The Millstreanm-Chichester National Park is located near Roebourne. Compared to the large parks such as Karijini, it is small but therefore quiet and with many beautiful campsites where you still feel like a pioneer and relive old times.

  • Dampier

    Unlike the Dampier Peninsula, this town is Australia's largest port in terms of tonnage. Named after the English pirate William Dampier who landed here in 1688 and was built in 1965 by Hamersly Iron. Upon entering Dampier is the statue of Red Dog and a little further up the peninsula is the Murujuga National Park, known for its many murals.

  • Onslow

    Onslow is a small mining town on the coast and is particularly interesting to me because of Old Onslow, actually a kind of ruin with remains from the early period. It often happens in Australia that a settlement is abandoned due to external causes and rebuilt in another location.
