Description
Located within the driest region of the Australian continent, the Munga-ThirriSimpson Desert Conservation Park is in the centre of the Simpson Desert, one of the world's best examples of parallel dunal desert. You can camp within 100 metres of the public access tracks in the Munga-Thirri Simpson Desert Regional Reserve and Conservation Park, but there are no facilities. Campers must be self-sufficient. Take all rubbish with you and leave no trace.
A Desert Parks Pass is required to enter and camp in Munga-ThirriSimpson Desert Conservation Park and Munga-ThirriSimpson Desert Regional Reserve.
Munga-ThirriSimpson Desert Conservation Park and Regional Reserve are closed from 1 December to 15 March each year. Vehicles are required to have high visibility safety flags attached to the front of the vehicle.
The use of trailers in the Simpson Desert is strongly discouraged. Caravans and motorhomes should not be used. Serious damage can be caused to vehicles and the environment, and difficulties are likely to result.
Dogs are not permitted in this park.
There is no mobile phone coverage.
To remain safe and to keep dingoes wild, please:
ensure you store rubbish, food, shoes and leather items securely
do not feed the dingoes they are naturally lean animals
always stay close to your children
do not encourage, excite, or run away from dingoes
if you are attacked, aggressively defend yourself.
Collection of firewood within National Parks is prohibited. Dead wood plays a vital role in providing shelter for animals and adding nutrients to the soil.
There are no services between Oodnadatta and Birdsville, unless you take a detour to Mount Dare Homestead.
