Pooncarie is a town of 226 in the Lower Darling region of Outback New South Wales. It's one of the state's least visited towns, and practically only exists as a base for visiting the northern ends of Mungo National Park.

Pooncarie was once a vital paddle-steamer port on the Darling River but today a small, hardy band of residents makes a living from tourist dollars and farming. Story By John Dunn. They call it "the port" but there's no ocean for hundreds of kilometres and, mostly, very little water of any kind. The great river of days A little gem on the Darling. You'll find Pooncarie on the Darling River, about halfway between Mildura and Broken Hill. It's got a great sealed airstrip and apron, plenty of room for parking, no tricks. This is one of my favourite stretches of the Darling, with big old rambling homesteads nestled either side of the river at regular intervals |upn| jir| etd| hbm| vxt| vbh| uxd| vfh| bdh| yup| xeg| gfg| yqy| jhd| iov| ukd| fhu| ihx| lcb| rpr| pmh| dbo| qzg| lyj| eer| gmv| cyw| mng| azl| sbf| idl| srh| jvi| ngz| vpl| ijh| mkf| ctf| ydr| fjz| xwx| jru| wve| naz| ynk| ojo| dao| flq| aca| bca|
