Hi all
I'm going on a trip from Murray Bridge to Bourke following the Murray River then the Darling River. It is with a group of friends from the CFS (Country Fire Service), from June 6th -17th. Has anyone any tips for interesting 4WD things to do on the way? I expect that there are some tracks we can explore, and places to visit. Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks.

John,

Can't tell you much about tracks. Just a note to remember that there is free camping at each ferry crossing on one or the other side of the river. There is a good camp area at Hogwash Bend between Cadell and Waikerie. I will be doing part of the Darling at the end of this week and can report back when I get home in early May.

Cheers

Hi John,

There is a book available from the shop here that descibes the river treks. I have it but I cannot find it to tell you the name. I am sure Michelle or David will give you the name. From what I have read of it so far it has given great advice on where to drive, interesting points along the way and places to camp.

Cheers
