Step back in time with a visit to the historic Kinchega Woolshed in Kinchega National Park, near Menindee on the Darling River Run.

Once part of one of Australia’s largest sheep stations, this iconic outback landmark offers a fascinating glimpse into the region’s pastoral past, with its original timber structure, shearing stands and stories of station life still echoing through the shed.

A must-see stop when exploring Menindee, Kinchega National Park and the lower Darling.

Want to stay a little longer? Camping is available nearby at Emu Lake Campground. Bookings via the NSW National Parks website.

🚢 Something a little different is happening on the Murray this June… and we’re excited to bring you along for the journey!

During June, Mildura Paddle Steamers will be operating from Wentworth Wharf, while important maintenance takes place on the Mildura Weir and Lock 11.

But don’t worry — our cruises are still running!

In fact, this is a unique opportunity to experience the Murray from another historic river town while learning more about the fascinating way our river system works.

Same paddle boat experience. Same heritage stories. Just a different stretch of the Murray for a little while.

📍 Wentworth Wharf
📅 From June 7th 2026

Stay tuned as we share more about what’s happening and what you can expect!
Follow our page for updates & cruise information.

Dust, timber, and decades of stories... 🪵 There is something incredibly powerful about standing inside the Mungo Woolshed and imagining the hustle of the shearing season from years gone by.

Another popular attraction on our outback tour itinerary! 🚐✨
