The Fort Bourke Stockade is a re-creation of the stockade built by Major Thomas Mitchell when he was in conflict with the local Aborigines. The stockade is located 16 kilometres out of town on a road that passes beside a particularly beautiful wetland alive with birds. The replica fort is little more than a few logs near the river.
When wanting to visit the Fort Bourke Stockade, please drop in to the Back O' Bourke Exhibition Centre, as there is a AUD10 deposit for a key to unlock the gate. While at the information centre, they can provide you information and directions to the stockade.

Connection as you taste native, fragrant leaves. A sense of belonging as you return to your favourite holiday house. Freedom as you dash into the waves. Discover the endless feelings a visit to NSW can inspire.
