The Karijini Eco Retreat is a premier eco-tourism destination situated in Western Australia's second largest national park, around 1,500 kilometers north of Perth. Known for its tranquil setting and well-kept accommodations, the retreat offers safari-style eco tents, cabins, and campsites surrounded by native bushland near Joffre Gorge (Jijingunha). Visitors can partake in various experiences, such as dining at the outback restaurant and bar, utilizing camp bush kitchens with barbecues, patronizing a kiosk for snacks and souvenirs, and exploring the park's walks, hiking trails, and guided tours.
Owned by Gumala Enterprises Pty Ltd, the retreat represents the Banjima, Yinhawangka, and Nyiyaparli people of the Pilbara region, establishing it as a 100% Aboriginal-owned establishment. The area boasts stunning ancient natural landscapes, featuring plunging chasms and towering waterfalls that captivate visitors. Guests can swim in turquoise waterholes, admire wildflowers and wildlife, and savor delicious food and wine. Hire cars are available at both airports for those who opt to drive, while road travelers must pay a $15 entry fee per vehicle at the park entrance. As there are no petrol stations within the park, visitors are advised to ensure they have enough fuel from Tom Price, the nearest town located approximately 80 kilometers west.
