First View of the Dunes

 The Dunes on the eastern side of Lake Mungo  have been formed over thousands of years as the sand and silt from the dry lake bed are blown to the east by the prevailing winds.  They continue to move to this day as the weather erodes the existing dunes and the sand gets blown further east.

We visited the areas that were accessible to the public.  The mix of sand and clay erodes into fantastic shapes producing a unique landscape.
