A smaller version of the Devils Marbles — a cluster of large rounded granite boulders 10km north of Tennant Creek. Sacred to the Warumungu people, the site has a short interpretive walking trail. Less visited and more intimate than the famous Karlu Karlu (Devils Marbles) to the south. The Pebbles are an undervisited satellite of the Karlu Karlu landscape — sacred to the Warumungu people and geologically identical to the famous Devils Marbles.
