The tubes were formed 190,000 years ago and is regarded as the most rare and unusual volcanic phenomena on earth www.undara.com.au
We wined,dined ,bushwalked and sat around a campfire sharing stories with travellers from all parts of the globe (even the guitar came out one night)
We also loved Bedrock Caravan Park in Mt Surprise with Jo and Joe and their lovely staff (who looked after Beck while we toured the lava tubes)
We experienced the true outback roads with the continual roadworks and roadtrains which leave no room for us on the road.

| Chris and Deb on our walk around the rim of Kalkani crater a short drive from Undara.You can see one of the lava flows in the trees in the background.(the massive eruption caused the lava to flow 90 kms to the north and over 160 kms to the north east and an estimated 23 cubic kilometers of lava at 1200 degrees c. |

| Dining out at Undara Good food and good company |
 |
| The tubes are enormous, this section caved in to allow light and trees to grow within the cavern. |
 |
| After heavy rain the tubes can flood this one did so last year and water covered th walkway. |
