Excursion Mitchell falls by helicopter tour at Newcastle

Experience the thrill of a helicopter beach take-off as you depart the Kimberley Coast to fly inland. Enjoy views of the untouched coastline, then follow the Hunter River upstream past Donkins Hill and over the Kimberley Plateau.

On the approach to the Mitchell Falls, the Mitchell Plateau can be seen in the distance, then as your pilot conducts a gentle orbit over the Mitchell Falls and neighboring Mertens Gorge you are in the perfect position to get an amazing aerial photo. Land above the Mitchell Falls on a natural rock platform where you are shown the wondrous natural sights by the onboard naturalist.

After your ground excursion, board the helicopter at the place you were dropped off and lift off over the Mitchell Falls. The return flight follows the famous JRC Creek and the boarder of the Admiralty Gulf Aboriginal Reserve.

As you approach Naturalists Island experience breathtaking views of Prince Frederick Harbour and Mt. Trafalgar in the distance. All to soon it is time to come back down to land on the beach to meet your boat.
