Information

Popular waterhole on the Diamantina River lies on the former Old Cork station. Swimming and fishing is permitted in the waterhole. Yabbies, black catfish and yellow perch are the most likely catches.

Visitors can access the area to explore the ruins of the old station homestead, swim or fish in the waterhole, and camp along the river banks. The windmill draws water from the waterhole and is still operational, despite the homestead being abandoned in the 1980's.
