kinchega national park - outback nsw - australia

The Darling River at Kinchega National Park, Menindee, Outback NSW, Australia.

The magnificent and iconic Darling River is one of the best examples of what Dorothy Mackellar was alluding to in her famous poem 'My Country', " I love a sunburnt country, A land of sweeping plains, Of ragged mountain ranges, Of droughts and flooding rains".

The Darling River meanders through NSW from its origins in Queensland's Darling Downs - via the Warrego and Culgoa Rivers - and from the northern NSW tributaries of Barwon, Gwydir, Namoi, Castlereagh and Bogan rivers.
