The National Parks and Wildlife Service is pleased to announce the reopening of the popular self drive tour at Mungo National Park after water damage.
Lower darling Area Manager Jo Gorman said the road had been closed since late last year.
“The amazing amount of rain we had meant water pooled in parts of Mungo Lake held by the clay soils
“Parts of the self drive tour cross over the usually dry lake bed so these roads have been boggy and impassable.
“We have been repairing damage caused by the water, but one section at Red Top has only just dried out enough for us to complete the works.
“We are very pleased to have the 70 kilometre Self Guided Drive Tour reopened as it is one of the most popular activities for visitors to the park.
“While it is reopened we do ask that people take care and try to remain in the middle of the road in the Red Top section due to very soft edges.
“We have also got a packed itinerary of Discovery activities on offer for the school holidays.
“The Discovery program starts this Saturday 24 September and runs until Sunday 9 October.
“Discovery Tours will be held twice daily at 10am and 2pm.
