Nature's Window
A natural stone window weathered into layered red sandstone. Through the “window” you can see the winding gorge of the Murchison River, Kalbarri’s top landmark.
Nature’s Window was weathered from tidal-flat sandstone about 400 million years old, with clearly defined red and white bands. It is about a 1 km walk from the parking lot, and the light is softest just after sunrise. The circular trail “The Loop” descends from here into the river gorge. The full route is about 8 km and takes 3–4 hours. It is moderately to very challenging, and on hot summer days it closes after 7 a.m. The national park charges admission per vehicle, about AUD 17. There is no drinking water at the site, so bring plenty of water and sun protection.
