Bungle Bungle National Park

Bungle Bungle National Park is also called the Purnululu National Park and is home to the peculiar rocky stripped mounds. The rocky mounds (or Bungle Bungles) are all black and orange stripes, caused by the black lichen and the orange silica.

There are some fantastic gorges around the Bungle Bungle National Park, with Echidna Chasm in the northern section of the park, and Cathedral Gorge in the southern section of the park. Both are about 1 hours walk from the National Park carpark, although if you've got the time and the energy the long 10 hour walk of the Piccaninny Gorge is very good.

Other gorges within the northern section of the park are inaccessible on the ground, although is amazing to see from the air. There are various different scenic flights available over the Bungle Bungle National Park, although it is definitely worth it.
