If you have travelled out of town from Broken Hill with Campervan Hire Sydney to visit the Sculpture Symposium, you may well enjoy staying on a tad longer and explore another area of the Living Desert Reserve. This reserve actually covers about 2400 hectares of pretty country in the Barrier Ranges and includes some lovely landscapes. You need to probably plan to spend at least half a day exploring.

The Living Desert Flora and Fauna Sanctuary is also located with the Reserve and comprises a total area of 180 hectares which is enclosed by an electric fence which is intended to keep no native predators out of the reserve and preserve the natural integrity o the area. It is for natural, native wildlife only.

Some of the muse for the design which is on display in Broken Hill also comes from this area and the area can be reached by several walking trails. The walking is simple and relatively flat so if you go at a time which avoids the heat of the day, it is a pleasant way to spend a couple of hours. The light really does do wondrous things to the landscape, so enjoy the walking.

There is rather a lot to determine if you take the Refuge Cultural Walk Trail, which is around 2.5 kilometres. It is often best to take it slow so you don't miss anything because there are a lot of Australian wildflowers as well as the Sturt Desert Peas. You may also go thru the Nursery of Australian symptomatic plants in your wanderings. A lot of research and care has gone into developing the refuge as a uniquely saved area.

Except for Red Kangaroos and Wallabies, there also are fascinating Aboriginal cultural displays which portray traditional culture. There is also some truly fascinating story pole artworks which are rather more contemporary naturally. If you're artistically inclined, take along your pencils and paint as the area truly is extraordinarily lovely and your day will pass all to quickly.
