Murray Sunset Remote. Into the heart of the Murray-Sunset NP, this remote walk is mostly off-track - good for practicing your navigation skills (map & compass and/or GPS). For a 'desert', there is a lot of vegetation and even more sand. This is tough country in summer but, hopefully, late May should be ideal. Drive up on Friday (early start) and walk 4km to the 1st camp. Car-camp on the last night & drive home on Tuesday. |
