Mungo National Park, located within the Willandra Lakes World Heritage Area, features stunning, often stark, landscapes. It is the land of the Ngyiampaa, Mutthi Mutthi and Southern Paakantyi Aboriginal people who have lived here for millennia. In August 2016, NPA member David Noble visited Mungo NP with friend David Hufton and recorded their experiences on his blog.
