Bachsten Camp

Bachsten Camp sits on Bachsten Creek in the Kimberley region of north-west Western Australia, nestled in a narrow valley among rugged sandstone outcrops.

It is accessible via the remote Munja Track, roughly 150 kilometres from Mt Elizabeth Station, and requires a capable four-wheel-drive vehicle. The camp is managed by Wilinggin Aboriginal Corporation.

The surrounding landscape offers remarkable natural attractions, including gorges, waterfalls, deep swimming rockholes fringed by Pandanus palms, and Aboriginal art sites.

The area is also regarded as one of the most reliable locations in the Kimberley for endemic wildlife such as the Monjon, Scaly-tailed Possum, Golden-backed Tree Rat, and Golden Bandicoot, along with notable birdlife including the Black Grasswren.

Basic facilities at the camp include shaded sleeping huts and hot showers supplied by a donkey boiler.
