Sturt National Park

Sturt National Park spans 325,329 hectares of varied landscapes, from red sand dunes to gravel plains and plateau mountains in the Australian outback.

The national park, established in 1972, bears the name of Charles Sturt, who conducted significant explorations through the Australian interior during colonial times.

Aboriginal middens and stone artifacts found throughout the park demonstrate the long connection of indigenous peoples to this remote region of Australia.

Four designated campgrounds within the park provide facilities for visitors with caravans and camper trailers, requiring payment through coin-operated machines at entry points.

The northern boundary features a section of the 5,614-kilometer Dingo Fence, constructed in the 1880s to separate wild dogs from sheep stations.
