Maps and Guides
Whether you’re at the start of your trip planning or about to embark on your adventure, a good quality map will be indispensable. Below, you’ll find recommended maps and guides to purchase, as well as free downloadable maps of the Gibb River Road, Karijini National Park, and more.
Online maps may not always be accurate with estimated driving times and distances, particularly in remote areas. When travelling in remote areas, phone and internet connection is very limited so it is advisable to have a copy of a printed map/guide to assist you in navigation.
It is important that you download/print all relevant passes, maps, guides and information before travel.
Maps
A number of Kimberley and Pilbara maps and guides are produced by reputable publishers, including HEMA Maps, online and in bookshops and service stations.
