G'day, sooner than later my wife and I are heading to Lake Mungo National Park,South Western NSW. Can anyone suggest camping areas(free) north of Mildura. We have a dog, Australian Terrior/Chihuahua- cross and don't want to leave her behind. She has saved my life and I owe her, she loves travelling!!.
Any info would be appreciated

Mighty Q,

Mungo is a days visit at the most, we looked at camping there but ended up going further North and stayed on the Darlingriver just out of Menindee, it was great there and a bit more to see and do.

Its a great place . Mungo is steeped in Aboriginal lore and the guides are great, see if you can tag along on the back of a tour, the guys know heaps and we would have missed out on so much just wandering abotu there by ourselves.

Broken Hill is nice too, could spoend a month there and still not see evreything

All the bestSo many places to go!
So much work to do :0(

Hi Q
Bonz is right Mungo is great but only a days look.
I actually stayed in Mildura and day triped it.

Have a good time what ever you do.

Regards
John

There is a good Murray River campsite just off the Sturt Highway about 15km heading east from Monak(Mildura to Euston road). You can access Mungo from Balranald if you wish. I agree, Mungo is a day visit. There should also be campsites from Wentworth to Menindee along the Darling River. Just follow your nose.
Cheers, Willem

Plenty of camping between Balranald and Mungo on the Burke and Wills Way.
