London Bridge, Sandstone
by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

The Sandstone area has countless natural rock formations or 'breakaways' which contrast dramatically with the rust-stained landscapes.

Believed to be 350 million years old, one of the most spectacular breakaways known as 'London Bridge' was once wide enough to allow and horse and sulky to cross. Over the years, however, it has been eroded to its present width of one metre.

The Golden Country by Andrew Priest, on Flickr

View from Barlangi Rock, Western Australia.

Barlangi Rock has a long history, going back some two billion years when a meteorite slammed into what is now outback Western Australia. The impact left a 70-kilometre-wide scar on the land known as Yarrabubba impact crater. Sadly, the crater is no longer visible.
