What are the road conditions?
This is a very common question that is difficult to answer as the conditions may change rapidly and will vary throughout the Kimberley.
Most road conditions, depend on the weather and for unsealed roads, when the road was last graded and how much traffic is using the road. The conditions and depths of water over floodways can also change quickly.
Driving in the Kimberley can be unpredictable and presents unique challenges for even the most experienced travellers.
It is always best to be prepared! Get to know the proficiencies of not only your vehicle, but also yourself. Understand your vehicle, and if you are towing, the capabilities of what you are towing, remember at the end of each day you are going to want a bed to sleep in.
