Gogo Station, Pastoral station and heritage site in St George Ranges, Western Australia.
Gogo Station is a pastoral lease and registered heritage site in the Shire of Derby-West Kimberley, Western Australia, situated near Fitzroy Crossing in the Kimberley region. The property covers open grassland with natural water sources and the infrastructure needed to run a working cattle operation through the seasons.
The station was founded in 1885 by the Durack and Emanuel families, who had come north looking for grazing land and built one of the early cattle operations in the Kimberley. Their arrival was part of a broader wave of European settlement that reshaped land use across the region during that period.
The Yakanarra community has deep ties to the land here, and their presence shapes how daily life on the station unfolds. Visitors can see how Indigenous connections to country remain part of the way the place operates today.
Gogo Station sits in remote inland country, and road access can change significantly depending on the time of year, so checking conditions before you travel is important. The wet season can cut off routes entirely, and even in the dry season some tracks require a high-clearance vehicle.
The land around Gogo Station has yielded some of the best-preserved Devonian fish fossils ever found, with specimens dating back roughly 380 million years. Scientists have recovered remarkable three-dimensional fossils here that revealed details about ancient fish anatomy not seen elsewhere in the world.
