Information

Mt Gunderbooka rises to 500 metres among the rust-coloured cliffs, gorges and hills of the Gunderbooka Range. The region is of great significance to the local Ngemba people and the range has a history of ceremonial gatherings and rock art. Dry Tank has a small camping and picnic area that's accessible by car and is large enough for a caravan. A 4.8-km walking track leads from the site through mulga woodlands to nearby Little Mountain, where you can lookout over the northern escarpment of the Gunderbooka Range. There's accommodation available for small groups in the six-room Belah shearers' quarters complex (facilities including hot showers), or the Governess's Cottage. A new day-use area is open at Bennetts Gorge with barbecues, toilets and picnic tables. An easy 1-km-return Valley of the Eagle (Ngana Malyan) walking track leads to the base of Mt Gunderbooka.
Access 50 km south of Bourke off the Kidman Way (dry weather only). Use of generators is not permitted. Bourke, phone 6872 2744
