Detailed itinerary

Stop 1
Take the opportunity to grab a photo of this iconic Perth structure before departing at 6:45am. An early start ensures we maximise the day and beat the heat (and the crowds) to explore the Pinnacles before the WA sun gets too hot.

These ancient rock-like structures are formed by microbial communities and are among the earliest signs of life on Earth, dating back over 3.5 billion years. As you stroll along the easy boardwalk trail, you’ll get a close up look at these living fossils and find out what makes them so special.
