Welcome to the most underrated hike in Karijini National Park! 

📍Knox Gorge I Western Australia 
🥾 2km return hike 
🚐 7 hours from Exmouth

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to SAVE this gem for later! (Stick around @yourscenicmiles for more bucket list places  like this in Australia)

Most people hit the more well-known trails, but honestly, this one is an absolute highlight! Especially once the sun comes out, the pool turns completely turquoise and the gorge walls glow red! 🥹

Tip: Don’t start this hike too late - but not too early either. Once the sun falls into the gorge, everything lights up beautifully. You don’t want to miss that.

Also: after the hike into the gorge, walk right - there’s another pool that glows just as blue! 💙

Would you take a swim here?

🩵 Hidden gem: Knox Gorge (Grade 5, ~2 km return) - our favorit pool. 

⛰️ For mountain lover: Mount Bruce (Grade 5, 9km return)

This is the most impressive hike in New South Wales! 😍 

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to SAVE this for your own adventure so you don’t get lost! Believe us you’ll NEED these tips!

Honestly? I was seconds away from just sitting down in the dirt and don’t hike further! After the last km on this trail, my legs were completely done!

So we completely underestimated this hike
The natural infinity pools on the top of this waterfall are dreamy (bring swim clothes) but the end of the trail is way harder than most people expect.

📍 Fortress Creek Falls Trail | Blue Mountains
🚐 Only 1:45 hour from Sydney 

What you need to know:
1️⃣ It’s longer than AllTrails says (we tracked ~9.8 km return) 
2️⃣ It’s ranked Grade 5 in Australia for a reason 
3️⃣Very rocky, uneven & technical
4️⃣ The last kilometer is the hardest (steep downhill, no official trail, technical)

The view and pools are unreal! But please don’t take this hike too easy - especially if you’re not used to steep, technical trails!

Would you do a Grade 5 hike to reach this spot?

📍The Coconut Well Rockpools in Broome are one of the most surreal spots we’ve seen in Australia 😍 

📌 Before we jump in, make sure to SAVE this for your Western Australia Road Trip! 

Here‘s the thing: the tides make this place. Like almost everywhere in Broome, timing is EVERYTHING. To see this moon-like surface, you have to come at low tide! 

🌊 High tide: The little rock pools fill up with crystal-clear water and you can literally lie in them like a natural spa. 

🪐 Low tide: The whole place transforms into what looks like another planet. Completely unreal! 

A few things to know before you go: 
👟 Wear shoes – the rocks are REALLY sharp! 
🐊 Be Crocwise! Always check and respect the warning signs.

Who would you take here?

Part A is about: 

💪 For the adventurous: Hancock Gorge (Grade 5, ~1.5 km return) - honestly our favourite. Chest-deep water crossings, the epic Spider Walk and Amphitheater, plus cool Kermit Pool. Steep stairs down, but it felt way easier than the rating!

💧 For the relaxed hiker: Fern Pool and Fortescue Falls (~1,4 km) in Dales Gorge - the park’s best swimming spots.

Here‘s how to spend 3 days in Shark Bay:

📍Stay in Denham - it’s much quieter and we liked it way better than Monkey Mia, which is super touristy.

🐬 Monkey Mia - wake up for the wild dolphin meet! Arrive by 7:30 AM, as sessions depend entirely on dolphin visits and can finish early (sometimes by 9:00 AM)! Access to the experience is included with your Monkey Mia Conservation Park Entry Permit - 100% worth it. Get there right at sunrise.

🐚 Shell Beach - a beach made entirely of shells 

🩵 Little Lagoon - the clearest water and most colorful landscape!

🧡 Francois Peron NP - red dirt meets turquoise. Tip: since the park is 4WD-only, just rent a kayak at Monkey Mia. We rented one for 4 hours, and it was perfect for paddling out to the park’s red rocks - we even had the place to ourselves! Rent via Paddeling Monkey Mia 

🚐 Enjoy the coastal road on your way to Denham - Eagle Bluff Lookout is a great stop, and you can sometimes spot wildlife there. 

🧖🏼‍♀️ The Artesian Natural Hot Tub is perfect for stargazing in the evening, when it’s least busy 

What would you visit first? 🙌🏻
