It is located west of Lake Torrens, northwest of Port Augusta and northwest of Adelaide. It is located in the foothills on the northern side of the Gawler Ranges. Lake Gairdner was named by the Governor of South Australia, Richard MacDonnell in October 1857 after Gordon Gairdner, a Chief Clerk of the Australian Department in the Colonial Office.
