Rock formation at Organ Pipes National Park . . .
The Organ Pipes National Park, abbreviated as OPNP, is a national park located in the Central region of Victoria (Keilor North), Australia. It is about 20 km northwest from Melbourne CBD. The 121-hectare (300-acre) protected area was established with the focus on conservation of the native flora and fauna, and preservation of the geological features in the Jacksons Creek, a part of the Maribyrnong valley, north-west of Melbourne. It is situated in a deep gorge in the grassy, basalt Keilor plains.
The Park is famous for interesting rock formations such as the Organ Pipes. This lesser known spot is located near the Rosette Rock and Tessellated Pavement, just above Jacksons Creek.
