Bourke Region
On the Darling River in far north‑west New South Wales, Bourke once marked the edge of civilisation and remains a centre for pastoralism and Aboriginal culture. Paddle steamers no longer ply the river, but houseboats and cruises take visitors past red river gums and bird‑rich wetlands. The Back O’ Bourke Exhibition Centre tells stories of explorers, drovers and poets who passed through. For many residents, nothing beats watching the sun set from the top of Mount Oxley as wedge‑tailed eagles circle overhead, and on calm nights tales are told of ghosts that linger around the historic wharf where paddleboats once tied up.
Bourke Council has an approximate area of 42,000 km².
It is within the state electorate of Barwon.
