Purnululu National Park

We would like to express my heartfelt thanks to Zane, Sam, and Nell, who work in the park. They were incredibly professional and so willing to help. During our journey, our car broke down in the extreme heat, and we were feeling very panicked at the time. They came to rescue us, took great care to comfort us, and offered us so much help and kindness. We also met many other travelers in the park who were incredibly warm and helpful. On top of that, we were able to witness the park’s breathtaking scenery. This trip is something we will never forget for the rest of our lives — it was a truly wonderful and precious experience!

The most impressive national park l've ever been to. Echidna Chasm was spectacular, Cathedral Gorge just amazing, Mini Palms beautiful and everything else just breathtaking beautiful. Stay two or more days. We stayed two but wish we had stayed at least four.

So very interesting and beautiful. Minions of years to create this masterpiece. Don't forget to visit Echidna Chasm and Cathedral Gorge. A stay at the Wilderness Lodge glamping site is great. Check out some of the sunsets

Visiting Purnululu National Park, and in particular the Bungle Bungles is probably the reason a lot of people travel to The Kimberley. Arriving early at Piccaninny has the advantage of the early morning light on the beehive/ doomed rocks, cooler conditions and less crowds. Vehicle parking areas have toilets and shade shelters. The trail heads have maps and are well marked. Walking conditions are generally moderate, some rocks and soft sand, but I found it reasonably straightforward. All the short hikes, gorges and chasms get busy here as the day progresses. The trails are open and exposed so sun exposure is an issue, along with needing to bring water.

Flew with Kimberley Air Tours from Kununurra. 2 hr flight over Lake Kununurra, Lake Argyle, Bungle Bungle, Argyle Diamond Mine 💎 and over Ivanhoe Crossing. Awesome pilot Rebecca very knowledgeable of local history. I recommend this flight to see this beautiful country from the air ❤️ to see the vast farming land that is Kununurra especially the white fields of cotton.

if Uluru (Ayers rock) is about one rock - a very big rock, then Purnululu (The bungle bungles) is about many rocks - many unique rocks. we were here in Sept 2022, drove almost 3 hours from Kununurra via Victoria Hwy and Great Northern Hwy to the park access turn off - Spring Creek Track. The 53 km access track is rocky, Sandy and corrugated with some creek crossing, you need 4WD and 1.5~2.5 hours for this section, and it's easyer than driving around Fraser Island in QLD. we've stayed three nights in APT Wilderness lodge, and spent one+ day in Southern section of range - The Dome, Cathedral Gorge, Piccaninny Creek lookout, The Window and the Heli tour in afternoon; and one day on Northern section - Mini Palms Gorge, Echidna Chasm, Osmand Lookout and finally Kungkalanayi Lookout for sunset. all walking trails are well signage and easy for most poeple - except Piccaninny Creek Trek to The Fingers. weather is hot in high 30's, better walk in early morning or late afternoon with plenty water + sunscreen + a hat and... for most of self-drive, two night stay are good for the trip, but it can be done by one night stay. Chinese used to describe the beauty of Mount Huang (黄山) with phrase: 五岳归来不看山 黄山归来不看岳 here in Kimberley we can say: Argyle 归来不看shui (水/lake) Bungle 归来不看shi (石/rock)

This place is amazing!!. It is a wee bit challenging getting in. The 53kms will take you up to 2hours to get through but we'll worth it. Definitely must have a 4wd. Small water crossings. The visitors centre has free WiFi, if you must, but that is the only place. The visitor centre people are so helpful. Remember to book in when you arrive. They close between 12-1pm for lunch. If you do arrive when they are closed come back later or the next day. I stayed at the Southern end, Wilardi, as it was closer to the heli flights. I would recommend the heli flight as the Bungle Bungles look amazing from above. National Park so no dogs

We did Cathedral and Piccaninny walk and also the Echidna Gorge walk. Definitely go on a guides tour you learning and see so much more. We stayed a night at Savannah Lodge which was wonderful. We did the helicopter ride over the Bungle Bungles which was breathtaking. I would thoroughly recommend this.
