Darling and Murray River Junction and Viewing Tower

The confluence of the two rivers is a magnificent sight to behold and one that should not be missed.

One of the prime activities at the Darling and Murray River Junction and Viewing Tower Wentworth is to climb the viewing tower to witness the confluence of the Murray and Darling Rivers. The view from the tower is simply breathtaking, with the combined rivers being the fourth-largest river system in the world. The best time to witness the water's contrast is when the Darling River is in flow, and the distinct colour difference between the clay-based Darling River and the mighty Murray becomes visible.

Take the time to read up on the history of the Darling River in the pictorial informational gazebo, an educational and fascinating experience. For those travelling with kids, the playground is an excellent place for kids to exert some energy while visitors enjoy the peace and quiet of the region.
