The Lost Cities rock formations in the Limmen National Park, NT, should be on everyone's bucket list for that big trip one day.
The formations are believed to be double the age of Uluru at about 1.4 billion years old, which puts them at some of the oldest on the planet, and yet they receive very little in the way of visitors each year and not a great deal is known about them.
We recently spent ten days on a short trip from Cairns across Qld and up through the Gulf to spend a few days investigating and poking around. It was absolutely worth it, and had that feeling of awesome remoteness and timelessness whilst wandering around amongst the formations. Below is a link to the Blog story on the trip and a couple of photos.
