Plumridge Lakes Nature Reserve Sign - WA

At this point, you would now be leaving the Plumridge Lakes Nature Reserve. A good part of this road passes through the Plumridge Lakes Nature Reserve, one of six “A” Class Nature Reserves in the WA Section of the Great Victoria Desert. The difference between a Nature Reserve and a National Park is the same throughout Australia. The Purpose of a National Park is for wildlife and landscape conservation, scientific study and the preservation of features of archaeological, historic interest, together with recreation enjoyment by the Public. Nature Reserves are for conservation of flora and fauna and as described for National Parks, but without the recreation component, so as to minimize the human impact.
