If you’re travelling the Darling River Run, consider taking a side trip to discover one of Outback NSW’s true hidden gems - the Goodooga Artesian Springs & Campground.
Fed by the Great Artesian Basin, these naturally heated mineral waters offer the perfect place to soak, unwind, and reset after a day on the road. The pools are clean, inviting, and open 24 hours, so whether it’s an early morning dip or a relaxing soak under a sky full of stars, it’s an experience worth the trip.
Right alongside the springs, the campground provides a peaceful place to pull up for the night. There’s plenty of space for caravans and campers, with basic facilities that make it easy to stay a little longer and enjoy the quiet.
If you’re heading through #Brewarrina or along the upper reaches of the Darling, it’s well worth adding to your itinerary.

Fill this space… It doesn’t take much out here.
🎣 An empty chair by the water, a couple of lines in, and time slowing right down. This is the kind of moment you’ll find #outontherun at Copi Hollow Caravan Park, where the days are easy and the fishing stories come naturally.
Set along the banks of Menindee Lakes, it’s the perfect spot to pull up, cast a line, and settle into that outback rhythm. No rush, no noise - just you, the lakes, and a good excuse to stay a while.
On the Darling River Run, this is what it’s all about… finding your own space, and filling it your way.

Step into one of the oldest living cultures on earth at the Brewarrina Aboriginal Cultural Museum.
The museum offers visitors the opportunity to experience First Nation culture, country and history firsthand from local people, in the very spot where local tribes have gathered for tens of thousands of years.
Through the ancient tradition of storytelling, the Ngemba, Ualarai, Weilwan and Baranbinja people walk in the footsteps of their ancestors, bringing to life stories once thought long forgotten.
Make time to visit when you’re in Brewarrina for an experience that will stay with you long after you leave.
The museum is open Monday to Saturday, offering guided tours of the centre and the National-Heritage listed fish traps.
Call or text Brad at the Museum on 0457 869 088 to book a tour or visit their Facebook page for more information and updates.
