Information

6km west of Balranald off the Sturt Highway you'll find the signed turnoff to this weir - you'll need to travel 4km along a gravel road. This road is suitable for caravans but there are no toilet facilities at this pet friendly site that has become a popular campsite.

This weir, on the Murrumbidgee, is designed to create a pool in the river to maintain a regular supply of irrigation and town water. Nearby is a grassed picnic area with barbecues and tap water.
