Wentworth

The confluence of the Murray and Darling rivers defines the setting of Wentworth — it gives this far-western New South Wales town its broad floodplain, riverfront reserves and long connection to inland navigation. Wentworth developed as an important 19th-century river port, and its historic wharf recalls the era when paddle steamers carried freight through the Murray–Darling basin. The former Wentworth Gaol, now a museum, provides another link to the town’s colonial past. Beyond the irrigated riverbanks, the country soon changes to dry inland scrub.
