Fantasy of the Peak Stone Array

Pinnacles Desert is undoubtedly a business card of Western Australia. The formation of Pinnacles Desert has various explanations. It is said that it was originally a dense forest, which underwent millions of years of geological changes and formed the peculiar stone forest on a vast desert today. Our route is to drive from Perth all the way north and then return. Places we didn't have time to visit on the way there can be made up on the way back. Many places are worth a second visit, and the Pinnacles is one of them. We visited it twice, once on the way there and once on the way back. On the first visit, the peak of the Stone Forest was shrouded in heavy clouds. The endless stone formations resembled installations in a desert, proving that nature is indeed the greatest artist in the universe. You never know what it will create, while humans can only marvel at the sculptural art before their eyes. Can't deny that the Peak Stone Array is perfect for shooting desert scenes, especially with cloudy weather. We hiked a short distance and rows of strange stone pillars stood in the desert, forming a unique alien landscape. We walked through the stone formations, feeling like we were on another planet, just like a scene from a sci-fi movie. Hike to the higher ground in the desert and from afar, those scattered stone pillars in the wilderness look like installation art. Nature truly deserves the title of the greatest artist in the universe! We revisited the Peak Stone Array on our return trip, and it happened to be a sunny day, making up for the regret of not being able to take pictures of the Peak Stone Array on a sunny day on the outbound journey. In contrast between sunny and cloudy, the Peak Stone Array presents a different magical scene. If we're not in a hurry, we can also take photos of the sunset before leaving. However, we still need to rush back to Perth, so we quickly took some shots and left. 📮[Travel Tips] ▪️After entering the Peak Stone Array Scenic Area, you can drive around the scenic area in a circle.
