Crossing Inn

Welcome to the historic Crossing Inn – the oldest licenced venue in the Kimberley!  Located on the banks of the Fitzroy River, the Crossing Inn has remained on this site since 1897. Nestled in native bushland, the Crossing Inn retains its charm and character from days gone by. The Inn has welcomed travellers and locals since its establishment on 5th July 1897 by Joseph Blythe.  Originally as a "shanty inn and trade store", serving prospectors, bullock team drivers, cattle drovers, and locals.

The Crossing Inn sponsored the local youth to do paintings for the outside walls of the 100 year old hotel. The walls of this popular and historic hotel are now a tourist attraction in their own right, and are a wonderful museum of local heritage, culture and art.

The Crossing Inn is 'a pub with personality'.  Check out  the local art studio - Mangkaja, or book a tour to see ancient grounds with Mimbi Caves, visit Danggu Gorge.  If you have spent the day on the banks of the Martuwarru RIve (Fitzroy River), you are more than welcome to show off your 'catch of the day'. And dont forget the local wildlife is everything you'd expect. - Galahs, Cocktatoos, Brolgas to name a few.

*In 2023, the Fitzroy Valley sustained substantial damage after the river broke its banks.  (Click on our online Picture Gallery) We are slowly renovating and hope to have the Restaurant and Campground back up and running in 2025.

Watch the local wildlife from your deck.  It's a Twitchers delight....
