Hattah-Kulkyne National Park

Hattah-Kulkyne National Park is a sprawling protected area in the Mallee district of northwestern Victoria, Australia. Spanning approximately 48,000 hectares, the park is characterized by its distinctive red-earth landscapes, dense mallee eucalypt woodlands, and a chain of lakes that form a critical wetland system along the border of the Murray River basin. The park was initially established as Hattah Lakes National Park in 1960, originally created to protect the scenic beauty of the Hattah lakes system, and was significantly expanded in 1980 with the addition of the Kulkyne State Forest to form the current park. The area holds significant ecological importance as a Ramsar-designated wetland and is recognized by BirdLife International as an Important Bird Area due to its population of threatened mallee bird species. The park serves as a vital refuge in one of Victoria's most arid and sparsely populated regions, offering visitors a glimpse into the unique semi-arid ecosystems of the Murray-Darling Basin.
