Lazy freshwater crocodiles are often seen sunbathing along the billabong's sandy banks and guests will notice the abundance of fish life when crossing the shallow waters.

Chimoolie Calling

Home Valley Station is operating a full-day tour inspired by the old Barclay stock route to Wyndham. This tour has been researched and put together by our Indigenous trainees - so we are very proud of it! The tour has been named Chimoolie Calling after the local Indigenous people's name for the area which was the last stop before Wyndham on the old stock route. The area is a large mass of land about 5km out of Wyndham which runs from the base of Bastion Point back towards the Carlton Ranges. It is here - after having driven cattle up via the Karunjie Track - that stockmen would water the cattle before moving on to the abattoir at Wyndham.

Chimoolie Calling circumnavigates the Cockburn Range via four-wheel-drive, lead by an HV8 Tour Guide and has many highlights, including:
  • Pentecost River
  • Cockburn Range
  • The Prison Tree on the King River Road - an enormous hollowed-out boab used by the police in the 1890's as an overnight lock-up
  • Five Rivers Lookout
  • Wetland bird sanctuary Parry Lagoon Nature Reserve
  • The Grotto - a pristine waterhole surrounded by sheer rock walls at the base of 140 steps
Home Valley Station trainees have given this tour a lovely tag line - "Listen to the grass grow and hear Chimoolie Calling".

Minimum four and maximum eight people per tour. $220 per person, other details available upon request, this tour uses the Karunjie Trail and King River Road; it is therefore subject to road conditions and minimum numbers.
