Information

Camp site at the Main Weir on the Darling River. This raises the water level so as to fill firstly Lakes Wetherell and Tandure. Excess water can then flow into Lake Pamamaroo about 1 km west of the campsite. Pleasant water views of the Darling but as the site is below levee level, Pamamaroo is not visible, but has many bushcamps along its shore just a few km away.
