Lonely Planet's Free Rein

The Kimberley is the harshest, most unforgiving and most extreme part of the Australian continent. Three times the size of England, its arid deserts, majestic plateaus and croc-infested rivers are home to just 30,000 settlers, who proudly claim it as Australia's 'last frontier'.

125 years after the first cattle drovers arrived in the frontier lands of the Kimberley, two hard-riding Australia icons, Bryan Brown and Rachel Ward experience the country first-hand by embarking on a horseback adventure along one of the region's most legendary stock routes.
