Bourke
Embedded in our Australian folklore is the iconic saying “Back O’ Bourke”. First coined by the Scottish poet William Ogilvie in his poem “At the Back O’ Bourke” the saying captures the image of the remoteness of Australia’s vast outback. Bourke is known as the gateway to the real outback and the ideal place to start your Darling River journey.Brewarrina
Brewarrina is a popular cultural and heritage stop for visitors taking in some of Outback NSW’s most stunning country. The Brewarrina District is adorned with some of nature’s most spectacular natural attractions including the National Heritage Listed Brewarrina Fish Traps, Culgoa National Park and the magnificent Barwon River.National Parks
Outback NSW not only has some of the best National Parks in NSW, but also Australia. National Parks of Outback NSW are as diverse as the area itself. From Mungo National Park in the south-west of the State, the river land beside the Darling River at Kinchega National Park to the remote outback expanses of Sturt National Park.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.

🌿👣🌿 Gundabooka National Park, NSW 🌾 👣🌾
Located 70kms from the Outback town of Bourke in the north-west NSW, Gundabooka National Park is adjacent to the Darling River and plays home to Mount Gundabooka and the Gundabooka Ranges. Nestled into the National park is some incredible displays of Petroglyph rock art as well as ancestral ceremonial grounds.
A petroglyph is an image created by removing part of a rock surface by incising, picking, carving, or abrading, as a form of rock art.

PAAKANTYI COUNTRY & LANGUAGE | Please note that images of deceased Indigenous people are contained within this video
The #Paakantyi, or #Barkindji, are an Aboriginal tribal group of the Darling River basin.
The land was harsh and drought was not rare. When parched conditions set in, the Paakantyi would withdraw into the backcountry around the few perennial springs, and cull the starving wildlife that came to slake themselves there.
The name Paakantyi comes from the word paaka 'river' and literally means 'belonging to the River', the River being the Darling. The People along the Darling were able to understand one another from near #Bourke down to Wentworth.
The Barkindji today derive from several dialects, all speaking variations of the same language. #ontherun #darlingriverrun Visit www.thedarlingriverrun.com.au. ... See MoreSee Less
