Considered the largest of the red sand dunes making up the Simpson Desert. 37km from Birdsville travelling on an acceptable road it's well worth the drive.
However heading further west from Big Red requires a fully equipped 4WD and desert experience and the appropriate permits (Queensland National Parks and Wildlife Service).
