Description of Calvert Range
The
Calvert Range is a little known gem in the Western Desert. Here you can find some unique aboriginal art galleries housing literally thousands of pieces of top quality rock paintings and some carvings. They can be easily seen from 2 main locations just 40km or so off the CSR. There are
camping sites just a little way back near the main junction under a lovely grove of trees beneath the base of the range.
Access is allowed once you have obtained your CSR permit - contact Richard Taylor (richard.taylor@westnet.com.au) and send him an e-mail explaining that you would like to access the
Calvert range and provide him with your details (car rego, name, number of people travelling, approximate travel dates and CSR permit #) it takes about 1 week and you get a permit to access the Calvert Ranges - info supplied by KiwiAngler 16th June 2008
