UNESCO World Heritage Listed, The Bungle Bungle Range in Purnululu National Park is one of the most striking geological landmarks in Northern Western Australia, offering a remote wilderness experience. They cover around 250,000 hectares with thousands of weathered, sculpted domes of ancient eroded mountains composed of Cyanobacteria layers sandwiched in layers of sandstone, giving a dark striped effect. The land is arid, but I found a single rock pool, probably with a small spring supplying it. It is remote and access is by 4WD or super tough vehicle.

The Bungle Bungle Ranges...Purnululu National Park. Far north Western Australia. These are some of the oldest rock formations on earth. It is a World Heritage listed Site in a very remote area.
The beehive-shaped domes are Devonian calcareous sandstone, with regularly alternating, dark gray bands of cynobacterial crust.
