The Pinnacles

Highlights

The Pinnacles Desert is like stepping onto another planet! Located in Nambung National Park, this unique landscape is filled with thousands of limestone spires rising from yellow desert sands. These ancient formations were created millions of years ago and shaped by wind and water over time. It’s a place that feels truly magical!

You can explore the Pinnacles by walking along scenic trails or driving through the park. Don’t miss the Discovery Centre, where you’ll learn how these mysterious formations were made and about the animals and plants that call this desert home. It’s a great spot for taking photos and imagining what life might be like on a faraway planet!
