Balranald is considered to be the Gateway to Mungo National Park which was the first national park to be World Heritage Listed in Australia. Mungo National Park covers most of an ancient dry lakebed on the plains of western New South Wales. During the ice ages, Lake Mungo was one of a chain of fresh water lakes strung along Willandra Creek and then the main channel of the Lachlan River flowing to the Murrumbidgee.
Visitors to Balranald can see spectacular sunsets, the oasis in the great Cumbungi Swamp, a vast variety of birds, flora and fauna providing a smorgasbord of opportunities for professional and amateur photographers and birdwatchers alike. Balranald offers some of the best fishing in Australia with five rivers all within 30 minutes drive of the main street.
Balranald is also on the Doorstep to Yanga National Park which is the newest National Park to be opened.
