Information

A hidden gem an hours drive NE of Bourke. Abundant wildflowers after spring rains in 2020. No entry to side tracks into reserve but plenty of blooms along the 2WD dirt roads cutting across from Ledknapper Crossing to the Dunsandle Rd which takes you back to Engonnia and the tar back to Bourke.
Go to the Back O'Bourke Art Gallery - link: https://dev.backobourkegallery.com.au/
Discuss art, buy a print etc and ask for a mud map of the Reserve which has all the locations of the particular plants in flower. An excellent day or half day while waiting for the Darling River Run to dry out and roads reopen.
