The Big Red Sand Dune in the Simpson Desert, located 35 kilometers west of Birdsville in Outback Queensland, is a must-visit spot for any adventurer. Standing at 40 meters high, it offers stunning views and a unique experience. Whether you drive up in a four-wheel drive, take a tour bus, or hike to the top, the reward is worth it. Don't forget your fly net for those pesky bugs, and be prepared for an unforgettable sunset over the horizon.
