Nourlangie Rock

Burrunggui (previously called Nourlangie Rock) is located in an outlying formation of the Arnhem Land Escarpment within the Kakadu National Park which is in the Northern Territory of Australia. It can be reached off the Kakadu Highway between Jabiru and Cooinda. The word Nourlangie derives from the Gundjeihmi language placename Nawurlandja which is actually the name of a smaller rock outcrop at the Anbangbang billabong.

Famous quotes containing the word rock:

    “When the rock was hid by the surges’ swell,
    The mariners heard the warning bell,
    And then they knew the perilous rock,
    And bless’d the Abbot of Aberbrothok.”
    —Robert Southey (1774–1843)
