Little Desert National Park
Little Desert National Park isn't only sand,
there are also a wide range of plants particularly during the
springtime when the wildflowers are blooming. Although most of
the tracks throughout the park are only suitable for 4WD vehicles
there are two sealed roads which also lead through the park, travelling
from the Wimmera Highway to the Western Highway. These travel
from Edenhope to Kaniva and Harrow to Nhill.
There are a number of different walks which you
can follow around the park, all of varying distances. If you want
a shorter walk, then head to the eastern side of the national
park. For those ready and prepared for a 12km walk to the Salt
Lake then head off from the campsite at Kiata. Make sure that
you let the rangers know of your walk before you start, and carry
all essential supplies with you.
There is lodge accommodation south of Nhill,
although there are also camping facilities at Ackle Bend, Horseshoe
Bend and Kiata. If you are walking over a number of days bush
camping is also possible, although it is best to check with the
rangers for the best spots.
