Darling River Run Road Conditions

Driving the Darling River

Darling River Run Road Conditions - The region of the Darling River is easily accessible and a safe place to travel. Like any journey, correct planning, preparation and common sense will ensure a memorable and wonderful experience.

Safe outback travel is about common sense and potential dangers come from the hot & dry summers and distances between towns & services.

Outback NSW experiences very hot and dry summers. Travel is safer and more enjoyable March – October.

The following Youtube clip is an example of the road conditions heading upstream from Wilcannia to Tilpa 

The best advice for any traveller is.. “it is better to have it and not need it than to need it and not have it”
