Details

That day, we woke up in a “Campsite” (just a place with rubbish bin, actually ^^) at the North West Coastal Highway. Then, we drove to Karijini National Park.


A plant in the middle of the rusty sand. Wondering how it’s able to grow here! But there are actually many plants growing like this. 😉

The more we were heading north, the longer the road trains are becoming 

After 409km driving, we finally arrive at the entrance of Karijini National Park. 🙂

The next morning, we drove inside the park.

This was a very fun and quite tough walk (especially when carrying a lot of camera gear that shouldn’t get wet… ^^).
