Information

This free camp is not marked in any way - if you proceed west out of Kununurra about 11kms the unmarked dirt track turnoff is about 1km past the Valentine Springs turn off on the left.
It is a large bare area, plenty of room but not at all pleasant. There is rubbish everywhere and it is not used much by travellers, more by itinerant workers.
The original rest area shown in the photo has been closed. There is an alternate site a few km further west along the road. It is approx 1 km pst the Valentine Springs sign on the left. It is unmarked, a large cleared area with no trees and not a pleasant site at all with a lot of rubbish.There are no facilities. It does not seem to be used by travellers, mainly by itinerant workers.
