Kline Loop Nature Walk (Murray - Sunset National Park)

Take in the vast beauty of the Pink Lakes along the Kline Loop Nature Walk. Learn about the long-standing salt mining industry in the area, the harsh conditions workers had to endure and life in a remote corner of the state. Look out for the many types of birds that live here, and for the footprints of kangaroos and emus as you pass through several different habitats along the walk.

Visiting the shores of Lake Crosbie and Lake Kenyon, the trail starts at the northern end of the Main Campground at Lake Crosbie. Follow the orange arrows on posts. Allow about 2 hours to complete the 4.8km Grade 3 loop, or allow longer and stop for a picnic at the tables near the shore of Lake Kenyon.

Visitor Tips: Carry adequate water to stay hydrated and avoid walking in the heat of midday. Temperatures can be extreme in summer. The only toilets are located at the Main Campground. There is no mobile reception in the park. The lakes are usually more pink in winter and spring. For more information, download the Murray-Sunset National Park Visitor Guide before leaving home.
