Hattah-Kulkyne
National
Park
South
of
Mildura
is
the
Hattah-Kulkyne
National
Park.
Here,
tranquil
blue
lakes
mirror
twisted
red
gums
and
feed
over
200
species
of
birds.
The
river
and
lakes
teem
with
golden
and
European
perch.
Hattah
Nature
Drive
and
Nature
Walk
are
a
perfect
introduction
to
the
boundless
natural
beauty
of
this
park.
Murray-Sunset
National
Park
Away
to
the
south-west
of
Mildura
is
the
vast
Murray-Sunset
National
Park.
This
remarkable
region
contains
the
largest
tracts
of
wilderness
in
southeastern
Australia,
containing
50,000
hectares
of
salt
lakes,
sand
dunes,
pine
forests
and
mallee
scrub,
providing
seemingly
endless
bush
walking.
Winter
rains
wet
the
salt
lakes,
breeding
algae
which
turn
the
lake
beds
pink.
The
area
is
renowned
by
wilderness
photographers
for
its
ever
changing
hues
and
untamed
beauty.
And
the
native
grasslands
here
are
some
of
the
few
remaining
in
all
of
Victoria.
