The stripes on the Bungle Bungles, also known as the beehive formations of the Purnululu National Park in Australia, are caused by layers of sandstone and conglomerate rocks that have different colors due to varying amounts of iron and algae deposits. Erosion and weathering over millions of years have created these distinct striped patterns on the rock formations.
