  • Meeting of Two Waters

  • Walgett is an Aboriginal word meaning "meeting of two waters", in this case the Namoi and Barwon Rivers. The area is an agricultural powerhouse, producing everything from Murray Cod (fish) to mutton and wool, beef, chick peas, barley, lucerne, cotton and wheat.

  • Mighty Murray & Murrumbidgee

  • Fly past the two longest rivers on the mighty Australian continent. The Murray defines most of the border between NSW and Victoria and runs to 1,558 miles with the Murrumbidgee coming in a close second at 923 miles. OK, not that close perhaps, but definetely getting a silver in the river Olympics!
