Wells and Sturt's tree walking tracks

Corner Country, NSW

A 7 km Corner Country walk from Fort Grey across Lake Pinaroo to Charles Sturt’s blazed coolabah near Cameron Corner.

About this place

NPWS suggests about 3 hours for this 7 km combination: Wells walk is a 4 km loop past Old Fort Grey homestead ruins, then an optional ~3 km return across dry Lake Pinaroo to Sturt’s tree, a blazed coolabah on the explorer’s inland-sea expedition. When the Ramsar wetland is full you cannot cross to the tree — go for the birdlife instead. Start at the east end of Fort Grey campground, near Cameron Corner.

Access & getting there

About 2 hours from Tibooburra toward Cameron Corner on remote unsealed roads. 4WD recommended. Park entry $8. No water. Lake crossing only when dry.

Gear notes
