With everything going on in our world at the moment and Mother Nature showing it's ugly side, we all need a reminder of just how beautiful Mother Nature is too.

Please feel free to contribute your favourite Natural Wonders to this thread, ideally at least one pic and it's location if you do :)

Lechuguilla Cave


At 138.3 miles (222.6 km), Lechuguilla Cave is the eighth-longest explored cave in the world and the second deepest (1,604 feet or 489 meters) in the continental United States. It is most famous for its unusual geology, rare formations, and pristine condition.

The cave is named for the canyon through which it is entered, which is named for Agave lechuguilla, a species of plant found there. Lechuguilla is in Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico. Access to the cave is limited to approved scientific researchers, survey and exploration teams, and National Park Service management-related trips.

If you ever find yourself in Italy heading into the Eastern Alps, near to the Swiss border, look for one of the world's most exhilarating drives (or rides) through the Stelvio Pass (Passo dello Stelvio) in the district province of South Tyrol.

When you reach an elevation of 2,800 metres, take a break and take in the view from the Alpengasthof Tibet hotel - restaurant - bar ...

... and of course, do reflect upon the incredible road along which you journeyed ...

KINGS CANYON, NT

One of the best natural wonders in Australia is Kings Canyon in the Northern Territory — a majestic land of 100m tall sandstone walls that tower over the desert.

I did a road trip here in 2018. We had a guide who new the history and area really well and it was the best trip of my life to date.

I can not describe the awe inspiring emotions that fill you once you've made it to the top of Heart Attack Hill (The climb to the top is most definitely hard on the body). The entire walk through the majestic Kings Canyon truly captures a part of your soul, it's magnificently beautiful, captivating and if you ever go it will always hold a place in your heart.
