  There are a number of beautiful walks in the area, or just get up early and watch the sun rise, or climb the western ridge and watch the sun set.

  The park is truly amazing. A must do if you have time in Broken Hill! The drive there is a great way to see native wildlife.

  The other gorge we visited was up Homestead Creek. There was some Indigenous art early in the walk which some moron has graffitied over. The walk up the creek after that is truly well worth the effort as is the climb up the Rockholes Loop. This was another pleasant surprise that was much better than I was expecting with great views of a pretty area.

  This park is full of surprises. The first one was ants in the campground, it is impossible to escape them but it was worth the stay. We visited the 2 publicly accessible gorges and there is a 3rd you need to pay to go into. Mutawintji Gorge was a surprise as it was much more impressive than I expected which was another surprise. There are largish bodies of water in it but don't expect to go swimming as the gorge is full of goats including lots of dead ones, some in the water. So it is really pretty but smells like a wet goat.

  The camp ground has everything you need (including flushing toilets and hot showers) along with the usual fire pits and rain water tanks. bring firewood as collection in the park is not allowed.

  Unlike most National Parks I have been to you will struggle to find a Ranger and the Ranger Station at the entrance looks more like an abandoned building than a Ranger Station so get you information before you go because there will most likely be nothing there. Some people did find a way to book a visit into the closed area so I guess the Ranger must show up sometimes.

  I was fortunate enough to have my parents take me here twice in the seventies/ eighties. It's amazing. True Dreamtime country. It was a traditional ceremony destination for Aborigines from a vast area of eastern Australia. The driving in all of this country is very beautiful. If you are lucky you will visit. Be sure to check out Mushroom Rock, and the many paintings. Amazing.

  Ruggedly beautiful landscape with a wide variation in terrain.
