Introducing Mirima National Park
A short stroll from town (1.5km), this national park (per car $9) is a stunning area of rugged sedimentary formations that look like mini Bungle Bungles. The 350-million-year-old sandstone rock has taken shape by uplift over the past 20 million years.

The splendid gorges of Hidden Valley are home to spinifex-covered hills and boab trees. There are excellent walks and wonderful wildlife: honeyeaters, black kites and the rare white quilled rock pigeon, along with wallabies, dingoes, echidnas, pythons, dragon lizards and snakes. The two well-marked walking tracks take around 30 minutes each – head here a couple of hours before sunset so you can see the magic the sun’s light works on the rocks.
