The Darling River Run
The Darling River Run is a thin, winding line describing a route through the NSW outback, characterised by landscape, history, culture, literature and adventure. Taken as a whole, or in its various component parts, the route provides an opportunity to see the real Australian Bush and experience some safe and easy off-road driving, connect with Aboriginal culture and iconic Towns & Locations along the Darling River, and drench yourself in the history, and contemporary life of a part of the country that is central to the national psyche.
🚗 School holidays are here — time to hit the road and head somewhere a little unexpected (and totally unforgettable)... like the Back O’ Bourke!
We get it — everyone loves a beach trip. But out here, we’ve got the glorious Darling River, sunset views from Mount Oxley, riverbank camping spots that’ll make your stress evaporate, and more birds than your grandma's feeder.
Take a cruise on the Jandra Paddleboat, wander through the historic North Bourke village, wave to a local (they’ll probably wave back), and soak in the peace and quiet that makes you forget what “busy” even means.
Need fuel? Groceries? A shady play area to catch your breath in? We’ve got all that — plus some of the friendliest people on the planet who’ll help you out quicker than you can say “where’s the servo?”
Swing into the Back O’ Bourke Information & Exhibition Centre to learn a thing or two, then grab a coffee (or a cheeky treat) from the Back O’ Bourke Café — trust us, it’s the kind of place where stories start and yarns never end.
So if you’re chasing something real, a bit of adventure, and a lot of heart — Bourke’s waiting. Come see what the fuss is about. 💛

Been there many times over the years!! It is truly amazing and well worth the time and effort to visit. I was in Silverton in July last year and the people there at the museum at the Jail there told me that the museum at the Jail at Wentworth has closed. Is that true???
Called at Wentworth a week or 2 back. This town has gone that far backwards it ain’t worth stopping at. 1.02pm we arrived. Nothing to eat in the place. Even the information centre had nothing. Lift your game Wentworth you are hopeless.

We stopped for a look on Monday. The kids and a few oldies were having a marvellous time, the littler ones were quite confident with the help of the penguins. An excellent initiative by the council.
Fabulous initiative Brewarrina Shire Council
