This week we're heading down to Purnululu National Park, "The Bungle Bungles".
We almost skipped it, because it is quite a detour and we were already travelling across the top of Australia late in the season. Luckily, we had friends working down there, which was a perfect opportunity to combine visiting our friends and the Bungle Bungles.
The road in, called Spring Creek Track, is a windy gravel road with massive corrugations, some rocks sticking out and a few creek crossings, which can get quite deep after a bit of rain.
We actually liked the drive in since it wasn't just a straight corrugated road and luckily they've just graded some sections.
Purnululu National Park offers a lot of beautiful walks, some are pretty short and some can be multi day hikes. Since it was around 40 degrees C every day, we tried to do hikes in the morning to avoid the heat (well, it was 30 degrees C already in the morning, but at least not 40 yet).
On day one we were already blown away by the landscape and the composition of the rocks. It looks like little rocks cemented together! The walk to mini palms was our favorite and even overtook Carnarvon Gorge in Queensland, which used to be Pat's favorite. The narrow gorge in a beautiful red color and about 200 meter high cliffs with palm trees growing everywhere was one of the most spectacular views.
Our friends usually run tours in this area and know some of these walks by heart, but they never had the chance to do Mini Palms and were blown away, too!
On the following day we wanted to get to the domes early in the morning to watch the sunrise. The road was pretty corrugated and especially when driving in the dark and you can't see all the pot holes you have to be extra careful. But we can tell you, it was sooo worth it.
Because it was late in the season, there were no more helicopters flying in the park BUT still, we would have needed to purchase a commercial permit to be able to fly our drone... A commercial permit for a small creator like us is way too expensive. We can tell you, the view of the domes during sunrise must be insane from the drone perspective ;), especially when you have to grey expedition trucks parked with people on the roof! A perfect morning!
When you plan a trip to the Bungle Bungles, make sure you spend a couple of days in the park and do as many hikes as you can. Each hike is different and beautiful!
Next week will be our final episode in Western Australia! Episode 35!!!
