Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre National Park Collection
A seemingly-endless expanse of shimmering salt crystals, Lake Eyre is a natural wonder
Kati Thanda-Lake Eyre is Australia's largest salt lake. Located 647 kilometres north-east of Adelaide, it was formed approximately 200 million years ago! The north lake covers a huge area which is 144km long and 77km wide, and at 15.2 metres below sea level, it is the lowest point on the Australian continent.. The south lake is 64km long and 24km wide. Flood waters cover the lake once every eight years on average. However, the lake has only filled to capacity three times in the last 160 years.
