Hike Overview

An easy 30 minute loop walk along the banks of the Fitzroy River to the Sandbar in Geike Gorge National Park. Learn something of the Bunaba people's heritage.

This walk meanders from the information gazebo down to the sandbar at the river. This area is a popular fishing and swimming place. You can then return to the gazebo via the river or through the open savannah woodland beside the road. Trailside signs interpret local Bunaba people's knowledge and use of the plants, animals and landscape. The sandbar is at the junction of the Margaret River and the Fitzroy River.

Track Grade

Grade 2 (Easy) - A Gentle Introduction to Inclines: Grade 2 on the AWTGS represents easy walking tracks that offer a slightly more challenging experience compared to Grade 1. Similar to Grade 1, no prior bushwalking experience is required. The track surface is typically hardened or compacted and may have gentle hill sections or occasional steps. The total distance of a Grade 2 walk is typically no greater than 10 kilometers. These walks are still suitable for families with a bit more experience or those seeking a gentle introduction to some inclines.
