Description

Once the largest inland port on the Darling River the wharf represents Bourke's historic link with the river trade. Now a peaceful community place to view the Darling River. The Bourke Wharf is a replica of the original wharves in Bourke. The Crossley Engine in Bourke is an oil-fuelled stationary engine manufactured by the Crossley Brothers in 1923. Over the years more than 100,000 Crossley oil and gas engines were built, and it is a testament to their quality that many are still in use today. This point of interest offers toilets and nice scenery. No camping or overnight parking allowed.
