The Bungle Bungle range is located in the East Kimberley of Western Australia and is a significant sight within the World Heritage listed Purnululu National Park. The range is known for its unique structure that resemble ‘bee-hive’ looking domes. Through erosion these sandstone formations have been created over millions of years and are now recognised world-wide. The area has always been inhabited by the indigenous people of Australia and only became known to others during the mid 1980s. To witness this remarkable formation, it is best done from the air, this ensures you can take in the entirety of the break-taking view.

Best view is birds eye view

Purnululu National Park is remote, therefore the ideal way to experience what it has to offer is to book a Bungle Bungle helicopter flight. These flights enable the customer to see the entire range from a view point that cannot be beaten. The helicopter flights will also fly over gorges, canyons and ranges that allow you to see cascading waterfalls, waterholes and fascinating flora.

Stop at secret spots

One of the best things about using a helicopter as your tour transport is you are able to get to nearly any location. During certain flights, the pilot will land safely at a secret spring for you to enjoy a picnic and a refreshing swim. At certain times of the year, you are able to visit amazing waterfalls and experience the rivers and creeks not long after rain.

Guided Walks and Gorges

Purnululu National Park also offers exceptional places to hike and stunning gorges to visit. Bungle Bunge helicopter flights can also include guided walks and hikes through the area. Locations such as Cathedral Gorge and Echidna Chasm can be explored with knowledgeable guides. Overnight stays can also be an option, staying at the wonderful Bungle BungleSavaannah Lodge and extended hikes are also on offer for those who wish to add to their adventure.

Range of departing locations
