To protect Mungo and NSW national parks' unique ecosystems and preserve their natural beauty, certain policies and rules have been established. Visitors are requested to adhere to these guidelines: No littering or removal of any natural objects — flora or fauna. Fires are prohibited outside designated fireplaces. Mungo camping is permitted in designated areas only, and all waste must be disposed of responsibly.
Dogs or other pets are not allowed at Mungo, with a few exceptions in specific areas. The use of drones at Mungo and other aerial photography devices require a permit. These rules are in place to ensure minimal human impact, safeguarding Mungo and precious spaces for future generations. Always remember, in a national park: 'take only photographs, leave only footprints'.
We journey to the park regularly each week on the unsealed roads and are experienced in reading their constant changing of conditions. In dry conditions dust is always a major problem and as the road is shared with large haul trucks it is paramount that you stay alert to navigate sometimes difficult conditions. On a good day most people can navigate the unsealed roads but in wet conditions roads quickly become dangerous which is when you appreciate the skilled driving of someone who knows the road inside out. Arumpo, Top Hut and Balranald roads will quickly close after rain events which make the park inaccessible.
Mungo National Park will also close if wet conditions make it unsafe to visit. We make a promise to our participants that no matter what the conditions are that if we can safely travel to the park to explore we most certainly will. We closely monitor the changing weather conditions so if any tour is at risk of not proceeding you will be notified in advance, with as much warning as possible.
