Summary
Take this great walk to immerse yourself in the Little Desert. An often-sandy walking track leads off from the Salt Lake vehicle track to a lookout platform offering expansive views across the desert.
Description
Accessed via the Kiata Campround access road, the Salt Lake Track is a well-formed gravel track for the first 2.3km. At his point the vehicle track becomes very sandy and only passible by 4WD. It is recommended you park at this junction and walk the extra 2.6km to the lookout. Those with a 4WD and some sand driving experience can continue for another 1.5km to the Trig Point car park. This is a semi-arid desert environment with very little shade, so choose milder weather and carry enough water.
