About Mungo National Park
Mungo National Park is a protected national park in south-western New South Wales, in eastern Australia. The 110,967-hectare (274,210-acre) national park is situated approximately 875 kilometres (544 mi) west of Sydney in the Balranald Shire. Mungo National Park is the traditional meeting place of the Muthi Muthi, Nyiampaar and Barkinji Aboriginal nations. People are no longer able to climb the sand dunes by themselves as strict rules have been enforced; all visitors groups need to be accompanied by an accredited tour guide to access the sand dunes.
