Description

Nice view from a hole in the rocks at Steep Point - the western most point of mainland Australia. Pets are not allowed at Steep Point and Edel Land. Steep Point can only be accessed by high clearance four-wheel drive vehicle or by boat. It is about 185km by road from the Northwest Coastal Highway to Steep Point, including 140km of unsealed road. The last 30km is a soft single-lane track winding around sand dunes. It is essential to lower tyre pressures to 20psi or less to avoid becoming bogged in this remote area. The drive to Steep Point from Denham takes about three to four hours.
