The Pinnacles WA – Nambung NP (near Cervantes)

We dropped in to check out the “Pinnacles” on our 476km road-trip from Geraldton to Rockingham (near Perth – roadmap). The Pinnacles are part of the Nambung National Park situated near the town of Cervantes.

The area contains thousands of weathered limestone pillars. Some of the tallest pinnacles reach heights of up to 3.5m above the yellow sand base. The different types of formations include ones which are much taller than they are wide and resemble columns suggesting the name of Pinnacles while others are only a meter or so in height and width resembling short tombstones. It is quite fascinating and well visited.
