WITTENOOM HILLS

Wittenoom Hills, located in Western Australia (postcode 6447), is a small rural locality in the Mid West region. Known for its vast, open landscapes and proximity to the Karijini National Park, the area is characterized by its arid environment, red earth, and sparse population. Once associated with the nearby (now-abandoned) town of Wittenoom, which was historically a center for blue asbestos mining, Wittenoom Hills today remains remote and sparsely inhabited, with limited infrastructure. It attracts visitors primarily for its natural beauty and access to the stunning gorges and rugged terrain of the Pilbara region. However, concerns about asbestos contamination have left a lasting legacy on the area's development and reputation.
