Located in remote Purnululu National Park, these eerie beehive-shaped sandstone domes are striped in orange and black and rise from the floor of Piccaninny Gorge.
Each of the walks were wonderful giving a different view of the area. Domes walk and Cathedral Gorge were easy walks. Enjoyed the Piccaninny Creek to the Lookout and Window over the smooth rock bed, some sand and rounded river rocks. Then in the north of the park, we enjoyed walking into Echidna Chasm to see the amazing colours of the rocks after 11 am. (Keep going past the round open area with a couple of benches as the chasm is further on from this, although the colours of the rocks here were also amazing. Mini Palms was also well worth it. Don't be put off by having to get through, under,around the huge boulders near the entrance, it is certainly worth it.

After a short walk on the rocks from greens pool we got to overlook elephant rocks and omg the views are stunning!! It’s a great little spot to swim, snorkel or fish Spend the day here relaxing on the sand - take a picnic and just watch the waves If rocks aren’t your thing, there is a pathway from the car park to elephant rocks so can enjoy views that way too

A stunning spot for spectacular views. It is reached by walking in/along properties. The spot is used for absailing as well.

We travelled from Perth on 1 Jan - and were amazed & delighted at the extraordinary landscape - hundreds of limestone formations - looked like the moon or another planet. Australia is blessed with every conceivable wonderful variety of natural scenery - and this one is special!

Explore the fascinating Wave Rock with it's multitude of colours in the formation [at least several million years in the making] including Hippo's Yawn and climb the stairs for a spectacular view of Hyden and the surrounding desert - this is one rock that you can legally climb! You'll notice a dam at the far end by the stairs, water is extremely precious in this part of the world, but this one blends right in. Be prepared for a long day, 4 1/2 hours journey each way from Perth, but you'll get a chance to stop and buy a beverage or two to enjoy with your lunch and visit the canine cemetery, a must for dog lovers. By the way, I was only kidding about surfing the Rock, but you'll see the similarity with an ocean roller.

This terrific site is accessible by all, there is a sealed road straight to the car park and an easy walk up stairs to a look out. If you are more adventurous you can take a track down the ocean side and then climb up one of the rocks for an even better view. We walked from Cape Naturaliste lighthouse car park and it is an easy 3.5 walk both ways on sealed disability friendly path and boardwalk. The views are sensational.

A Stunning array of colours as deep red dirt from the Pindan Cliffs falls onto white sand and then tumbles into the endless aquas of the ocean. Peaceful, unique, spectacular. Definitely worth the drive out to Kooljaman to have a swim and watch the world turn away from the sun :)

From waves crashing over the boulders from the ocean into calming waters at Canal Rocks we walked to the small bridge looking at a beautiful water would be a great spot for snorkeling
