Bungle Bungles

20th - 21st July 2010

Days 215 & 216

After a very windy, slow and rough 56kms into the national park, which took us 2 hrs, we were happy to set up camp and go and explore. It is a beautiful place of bushwalks that lead you into a chasm or a gorge or to a scenic lookout. But the actual rock formations for which the Bungles are famous for, are incredibly humbling to walk amongst. They look like domed beehives and are striped black and orange from the (black) or absence (orange) of blue-green algae. The area covered by them is huge and would take months to explore them all.
