    About Bourke Area

    Bourke is an historic river port on the Darling River in Outback NSW. It’s remote location - 780 km north-west of Sydney – led to the term “the back of Bourke” to mean the great unknown. But you’ll be surprised to discover a fascinating and exciting inland town with a rich historical tradition. For a couple of decades from the early 1860s, Bourke and other towns along the Darling River became important trading centres and transportation hubs. Today, you can walk along the town’s heritage trail or visit the Back O Bourke Exhibition Centre. Don’t miss a cruise along the Darling River aboard the paddle-boat Jandra.
