Only in Wentworth

Welcome to Wentworth, where the Darling River merges with the Mighty Murray. Tributaries west of the Great Divide feed these rivers with summer monsoon rain to the Darling and winter`rain`and snow thaw to the Murray, making this region ‘an oasis in the desert’.

The Historic Port

Once bustling with river trade as Australia’s busiest inland port in the late 1880’s , today things are a lot quieter on the river – the paddleboats largely replaced by houseboats and other leisure craft – but some things haven’t changed; Wentworth, the oldest town in the region, still retains its Colonial charm, yet displays obvious community pride.
