The
Darling River Run is a thin, winding line describing a route through the
NSW outback, characterised by landscape, history, culture, literature and adventure. Taken as a whole, or in its various component parts, the route provides an opportunity to see the real Australian Bush and experience some
safe and easy off-road driving, connect with Aboriginal culture and iconic
Towns & Locations along the Darling River, and drench yourself in the history, and contemporary life of a part of the country that is central to the national psyche.

Sit tight till roads dry ok … could be a couple of days along the Darling River Run as there’s been good rain in the Central Darling Shire too with unsealed roads now closed.
