Intrepid Travel Announces Western Australia Adventure Travel

    /24-7PressRelease/ - BOULDER, CO, August 29, 2008 - To begin Intrepid Travel's Australia campaign, Intrepid is announcing The Spirit of the Kimberly, an Australian adventure trip. This adventure will open traveler's eyes to the wonders down under, and allow them to experience the west coast of Australia from a local point of view.

Travelers will experience the true spirit of the Kimberley - from the saltwater Bardi culture, pristine beaches to the rugged red cliffs of Cape Leveque, passengers will come into contact with the local culture as well as the local wildlife. They will visit the Indigenous Bunuba culture, the cattle country and the picturesque gorges of West Kimberley. This Australia adventure is like no other in the Kimberley as it explores both the well-known sights and some of the hidden secrets of this extraordinary, remote part of Australia.

This adventure will show travelers all of the sights and sounds of Western Australia. Explorers will walk through the bush with the Bardi people, and will witness the massive tidal flows of the Kimberley. They will be on the look out for crocodiles at sunny Windjana Gorge, and will visit some of the local Aboriginal Wandjina artists at Mowanjum Arts and Cultural Centre. Travelers will cool off in hidden swimming holes, before they sample Aussie bush tucker made with local ingredients by indigenous Australians.

Some of the highlights on this Australia adventure are:

• Camping by the beaches of Cape Leveque
• Explore the laid-back Lombadina Community
• Enjoy Windjana Gorge, before an afternoon trek to explore the natural scenery
• Learn about the vast Tunnel Creek cave networks
• Take a cruise down the Geikie Gorge
