Read more about this trail

Kurrajong trail is a 1.1km loop traversing over a rocky, uneven surface with a gradual slop to the top of a limestone ridge. Interpretive trailside signs identify the various plant communities and their traditional use by the Gija and Jaru people for food, medicine and tools. From the top of the limestone ridge, you will be rewarded with panormaic views of the Bungle Bungle Range and the surrounding plains. 

As this trail is close to the campground, the view here is easily accessible to photographers looking for sunset shots. 

Please Note: Purnululu National Park is open seasonally between April/May to December, weather permitting and is only accessible by high clearance 4WD only. Due to the remote nature of the park, make sure to read through the visitor safety of the park before visiting.
