Kalbarri

From Pinnacles we drove most of the next day to get to Kalbarri. And here it was noticeably warmer so after a very long time we could sit outside while having dinner. The next day we went to see one of the main tourist drawcards – the Kalbarri National Park and it’s famous Nature’s Window. There is a very nice 8km loop walk starting from there and going along the river – first on the cliffs and then through the actual river bed. Despite the bad weather forecast it was quite sunny and warm at first, then cloudy but still warm. Which was probably better as the whole track is exposed, there is no shaded part, so the overcast day worked well for us. When we were starting at the Window there was heaps of people trying to take photos so just walked past and when we got back after finishing the loop we were the only ones there. The road there and back is one of the worst ones we have ever been on. It’s so corrugated and absolute nightmare to drive on. At point we had to stop as there was an echidna crossing the road at a very leisure pace. As soon as got back to camp it started pour down, so the forecast was correct after all.

Z Nambugu jsme jeli vicemene cely dalsi den opet podel pobrezi a opet na sever az do Kalbarri. Tady uz bylo o poznani tepleji a po dlouhe dobe jsme mohli veceret venku. Dalsi den jsme vyrazili na mistni hlavni atrakci – Narodni park Kalbarri a slavne Prirodni okno. Od nej zacina moc hezky 8km trek, ktery vede napred po svahu nad rekou a pak samotnym korytem. Predpoved sice nebyla moc optimisticka, ale zatim bylo teplo a obcas mezi mraky vykouklo slunicko. Nakonec se ukazalo, ze den trochu pod mrakem nam asi vyhovoval lip, nebot cela trasa je v otevrene krajine a neni tam zadny stin. Kdyz jsme vyrazeli od Okna byla tam sposta lidi a vsichni se to snazili vyfotit, tak jsme kolem jen prosli a fotili az na zpatecni ceste, kdy uz tam nebyl nikdo. Silnice tam a zpatky pres ten narodni   byla ale desna. Neskutene rozbita a cely auto se nam klepalo a nybylo slyset ani vlastni myslenky. Cestou jsme museli zastavit a dat prednost jezure, ktera se velmi lezernim tempem vydala pres silnici. Kdyz jsme dorazili zpet do kempu, zacalo lejt jak z konve, tak ze ta predpoved mela prece jenom pravdu.
