About Mount House Airport
Mount House Airport is a small outback airstrip serving Mount House Station, a working cattle station in the Kimberley region of Western Australia. It supports charter and private flights for station operations, remote workers and travellers exploring the Gibb River Road area.
The aerodrome has a single unpaved runway, designated 05/23 and measuring about 1,068 metres, at an elevation of roughly 289 metres. There is no scheduled commercial passenger service, so access is by light aircraft, usually arranged through charter operators or with station approval.
The airport lies in the Shire of Derby-West Kimberley, about 125 km north of Fitzroy Crossing and roughly 245 km northwest of Halls Creek. Access by road is via the unsealed Gibb River Road, and four-wheel-drive vehicles are normally required.
Passenger facilities are limited, and travellers should confirm fuel, water and access in advance. For most visitors, the airstrip works as a remote entry point for outback Kimberley journeys, with onward travel by pre-arranged 4WD transfer or charter aircraft.
