The Darling River Run To Beemery Bourke NSW

The Darling River is one of Australia’s most famous and one of the longest rivers, starting near Bourke in central NSW at the confluence of the Barwon and Culgoa rivers and then draining into the Murray River in Victoria. The Darling River Run snakes itself along the Darling through black soil flood plain country and is a historic and unique area. The run is over 900 kms, from Wentworth NSW (Near Mildura Vic) and a 4WD is recommended because rain can turn the road surface muddy within hours. The route starts off bitumen but turns to a dirt track after Pooncairie through the lakes around Menindee then the dry desert plains to Wilcannia, Tilpa, Louth and then Bourke. Riverside camps and great spots launch the tinnie are all along the run.

The first week would be r=the /Darling river Run then some hunting and fishing on a station 45 Km pas Bourke named Beemery.
