It is a large, shallow, unvegetated salt pan, {{convert|100|km}} long and {{convert|40|km}} wide, lying mostly below sea level and having a total surface area of {{convert|259615|ha}}. It only rarely fills with brackish water flowing down usually dry creeks in the Northern Flinders Ranges from the west, or exceptional flows down the Strzelecki Creek from the north. It was named after Edward Charles Frome after his mapping of the area in 1843. DescriptionThe lake adjoins Vulkathunha-Gammon Ranges National Park to its west and lies adjacent to Lake Callabonna linked by Salt Creek to its north, the southern Strzelecki Desert to its east, and the Frome Downs pastoral lease to its south. The ancient Lake Mega-Frome (Lakes Frome, Blanche, Callabonna and Gregory) was last connected to Lake Eyre 50-47 thousand years ago.[3] The region in which it is situated has little rainfall and is very sparsely settled, with the closest settlement to it being Arkaroola Village some {{convert|40|km}} north-west of its closest shore. Public road access to Lake Frome is limited to a single, rough four-wheel drive track which commences from the Vulkathunha-Gammon Ranges National Park headquarters at Balcanoona (Virlkundhunha) station {{convert|30|km}} west. The route to Lake Frome traverses flat, stony terrain following Balcanoona Creek through the only completely protected arid catchment in Australia.[4] After crossing both the Moomba-Adelaide natural gas pipeline and the dingo fence the track passes over low sand dunes before arriving at the western shore of Lake Frome. The protected area through which this access track travels is declared a Cultural Use zone for hunting by the local Adnyamathanha Aboriginal people between 3.00 pm and 5.00 am; during this period public access is prohibited.[5] Lake Frome forms part of the local Dreaming story told by the Adnyamathanha people explaining how the region's geology and species originated. According to this Dreaming story, Lake Frome was emptied of its water by the Rainbow Serpent Akurra when he ventured down Arkaroola Creek (which flows onto Lake Frome) to drink.[6] Due to its Dreamtime significance the Adnyamathanha do not venture onto the lake's surface. In April 2013, the full extent of Lake Frome was gazetted by the Government of South Australia as a locality with the name Lake Frome.[7] Protected area statusDue to its "regional geological significance" the full extent of the lake was proclaimed as the Lake Frome Regional Reserve in 1991.[8] See also
