| Mungo National Park |
Mungo National Park is a special place for me, and not just because it is overwhelmingly beautiful, but also due to the fact that it was the first NSW Outback place I’ve travelled to – this was the beginning, beginning of my long never ending plan to see every corner of Australia.

| Mungo National Park |
Mungo National Park is a part of the World Heritage Area “Willandra Lakes” that covers 2500 square kilometres of the the New South Wales south west corner and consists of 17 dry lakes most of which are fringed by lunettes – crescent shaped dunes.Mungo Lake is famous for the most significant lunette in the region known as ‘Walls of China’ – a series of up to 40m high sand dunes that stretch for more than 33 km along the eastern side of the Mungo lakebed. This lunette was named after Chinese workers who were working in the region in 1800s and constructed a Mungo woolshed in mid 1850. Woolshed is very well preserved and currently maintained by park rangers.
