French: Parc national de Purnululu
The Purnululu National Park is a World Heritage Site in Australia defined by the UNESCO in 2003 and definitely a recommended natural sightseeing location.
It is on position 620 (503, 388) in our monthly survey..

"The 239,723 ha Purnululu National Park is located in the State of Western Australia. It contains the deeply dissected Bungle Bungle Range composed of Devonian-age quartz sandstone eroded over a period of 20 million years into a series of beehive-shaped towers or cones, whose steeply sloping surfaces are distinctly marked by regular horizontal bands of dark-grey cyanobacterial crust (single-celled photosynthetic organisms). These outstanding examples of cone karst owe their existence and uniqueness to several interacting geological, biological, erosional and climatic phenomena."
