Formed from ancient shell deposits cemented by limestone. Pillars vary in height (cm to ~3.5 m). Walking trail and driving route through the formations. Sunrise/sunset turns pillars golden-red with long shadows. Wildlife — kangaroos, emus and lizards. Visiting for alien-like limestone pillars in desert sand is a unique WA experience.
