Purnululu National Park (Bungle Bungles)

Today we took another fixed wing flight over the Bungle Bungles. It is said that the beauty of the Bungle Bungles can only be appreciated from the air although I'm sure it's magnificent from the ground as well. It is a significantly larger area than I imagined. It is made up of unique sandstone rock formations, striped with orange and grey bands. The sandstone area is named Purnululu by the local Aboriginal people. We flew with Nick from North West Airlines in a small plane made in 1977.
Tomorrow we begin our trip across the Tanami Desert.Read more
