We travelled the Darling 12 months ago just after
Easter. From Brenda's
Gate, the Culgoa and all the way down to
Wentworth, with two days on a House boat at
Wentworth. A great trip. When we went (unlike the last comment), there was water in the Lakes with some flowing into
Menindee Lake (even if it was to water the grass for the Cattle). We did not want to leave
our camp-site at
Kinchega on the banks of the Darling.
The trip out towards Ivanhoe and then down to Mungo is a worthy addition to the trip.
Also Trilby Station at
Louth is a great stop over with local self drive tour.
