Heading east from Bourke couple hours drive to Brewarrina, which has a reputation of not being a very nice place to stop, can see why all the shops & pubs are boarded up, nothing been happening here for a long time
Barwon river
History
Brewarrina is situated where the Barwon river flows through what is thought to be the oldest man-made structure on earth
The Brewarrina fish traps are estimated to be 40,000 years old & are a great example of human ingenuity
"Fish Ladder"
allows fish to swim up stream to spawn
Camped the night at 4 mile camping reserve right on the river
Lovely spot until it started to rain & became very slippery clay/mud
