A thin wind moves across the cliff edge as the last pink of sunset drains from the Murchison River gorge. Under a rising dome of stars, guides at the Kalbarri Skywalk open a night of astronomy—telescopes trained on planets, constellations traced by laser, and the Milky Way arcing like a pale river above the break in the red rock.

Kalbarri National Park’s gorges expose sedimentary layers formed over hundreds of millions of years; the area has been home to the Nanda people for millennia, whose oral traditions link landforms to the stars.
Conservation
The site benefits from low light pollution—visitors are asked to minimize artificial light and stay on designated paths; purchases include a National Park pass that funds park management.
