| Declared a World Heritage Site in 2003, the park was inscribed as follows:[2] | WIKI |
| [3] Since its listing, the Government of Western Australia has reserved additional areas located adjacent to the World Heritage Area, including the Purnululu Conservation Park and the Ord River Regeneration Reserve. | WIKI |
| The Bungle Bungle Range, lying fully within the park, has elevations as high as 578 metres (1,896xc2xa0ft) above sea level. | WIKI |
| Access to the park by road is via Spring Creek Track, from the Great Northern Highway approximately 250 kilometres (160xc2xa0mi) south of Kununurra, to the track's end at the visitor centre. | WIKI |
| These have become emblematic of the park and are internationally renowned among Australia's natural attractions. | UNESCO |
| These and the soaring cliffs up to 250 metres high are cut by seasonal waterfalls and pools, creating the major tourist attractions in the park with evocative names such as Echidna Chasm, Piccaninny and Cathedral Gorges. | UNESCO |
| The diversity of landforms and ecosystems elsewhere in the park are representative of the semi-arid landscape in which Purnululu is located and provide a sympathetic visual buffer for the massif. | UNESCO |
| The Bungle Bungle Ranges of the Park also display to an exceptional degree evidence of geomorphic processes of dissolution, weathering and erosion in the evolution of landforms under a savannah climatic regime within an ancient, stable sedimentary landscape. | UNESCO |
| The Range is well-buffered by protected land on all sides including spinifex- and mulga-dominated sand plains within the Park to the north, south and east. | UNESCO |
| In the west the dominant feature is that of the Osmond Ranges which lie within the adjoining Purnululu Conservation Park (PCP). | UNESCO |
| These areas were considered sufficient to protect the World Heritage values of the Range with the recommendation that the PCP be incorporated into the Park, and that surrounding pastoral country should also be added to provide better buffering and boundary delimitation. | UNESCO |
| It was noted that the existing park boundaries are not ideal, being mainly water courses rather than watershed boundaries. | UNESCO |
| This could potentially allow incursion of undesirable impacts from neighbouring areas in catchments upstream of the park, such as waste effluent from mining activities. | UNESCO |
| This has resulted in the Park being completely surrounded by large areas of conservation land. | UNESCO |
| These reserves include the Western Australian Governmentxe2x80x99s Purnululu Conservation Park and Ord River Regeneration Reserve. | UNESCO |
| Ranger staff resides within the Park whilst on duty, but the Park is closed during the wet season from December to the beginning of April. | UNESCO |
| Land-based access to and within the Park can be difficult because of the remoteness of the area and the Parkxe2x80x99s position at the edge of Australiaxe2x80x99s monsoonal region. | UNESCO |
| Infrastructure funding has been used to upgrade the Parkxe2x80x99s walking tracks, airstrip and associated helipad. | UNESCO |
| Infrastructure funding has increased with the Parkxe2x80x99s World Heritage listing. | UNESCO |
| However, maintaining adequate staffing of the Park can be difficult in this remote area. | UNESCO |
| First, mineral exploration and mining are prohibited in the Park by the State Government. | UNESCO |
| Second, while exploration and mining are possible in the neighbouring Purnululu Conservation Park and Ord River Regeneration Reserve, any potential impacts to the World Heritage values are addressed through the Australian Governmentxe2x80x99s Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation Act 1999 (EPBC Act). | UNESCO |
| These include the addition of reserve land to further buffer the Park, measures to ensure that any mining outside the Park is suitably managed to avoid impacts to World Heritage values, management of alien invasive species and funding for staffing and infrastructure for the Park. | UNESCO |
