El Questro
A million-acre wilderness station where thermal springs hide in palm-choked gorges and nobody is around.
A million acres. That is the size of the property. Somewhere within it, a thermal spring feeds a pool between livistona palms. Somewhere else, a helicopter waits to fly you to a waterfall accessible no other way. El Questro is a wilderness station where scale is the luxury.
El Questro Wilderness Park is a one-million-acre property in Western Australia's Kimberley region, operating as a combined cattle station and wilderness tourism destination. Zebedee Springs — naturally heated thermal pools hidden in a palm-filled gorge — are the park's most celebrated feature, accessible via a short walking trail. Emma Gorge ends at a towering waterfall and plunge pool reached by a trail through monsoon vine thicket. Helicopter flights reveal gorges, waterfalls, and Aboriginal rock art sites inaccessible by any other means. Accommodation ranges from campgrounds on the Pentecost River to a clifftop homestead with views extending to the Cockburn Range.
