Nambung National Park

Nambung National Park is a nature reserve featuring thousands of limestone pillars called the Pinnacles Desert, alongside heathland and coastal dunes. The landscape is defined by distinctive limestone formations that shape the terrain across a vast area.

The park was established in 1994 by consolidating three separate reserves that had been individually designated between 1956 and 1968. This consolidation created a unified protection strategy for the limestone formations and coastal landscape.

The Yued people maintain long-standing connections to this land, incorporating their knowledge into conservation efforts and educational programs throughout the park.

The Pinnacles Desert Discovery Centre offers information about the geology and nature of the area, while marked trails guide visitors through the limestone landscape. The paths allow you to explore the formation at your own pace and reach various viewpoints.

Lake Thetis contains thrombolites, microbial structures over 3.6 billion years old, offering insights into Earth's earliest life forms. These structures are rare and give visitors a direct glimpse of our planet's ancient past.
