Yanga National Park

Yanga National Park offers you a chance to camp by the banks of the Murrumbidgee like Burke and Wills once did. From the early explorers, to shearers and rabbit trappers, fishermen and campers people have flocked to this area for all sorts of reasons.

Acquaint yourself with bygone days at the old Yanga homestead and woolshed. The Cook's Cottage and refrigeration shed exhibitions are open daily and you can wander around the grounds of Yanga Homestead.

The area also has a long and significant Aboriginal history. Families have lived here for a millennia and today you can visit significant Aboriginal cultural sites.

With unbeatable bird watching, you might see as many as 150 species of birds in the park's trees, skies and ecologically-important wetlands. Be sure to check out Yanga Lake Red Gum bird hide. To stay longer, make a booking and pitch your tent at Mamanga campground, Woolpress Bend campground, or The Willows campground and enjoy a spot of fishing by the river.

If the park office in Balranald is unattended you can also find plenty of visitor information at Balranald Discovery Centre.
