Paroo and Warrego Rivers
The Paroo and Warrego Rivers run along side of each other with the Warrego joining the Darling River below of Bourke in N.S.W on a consistent basis. Together the Paroo and Warrego catchment cover roughly 14% of the Murray Darling Basin.
The Warrego River starts at the Carnarvon Ranges and flow south, joining the Darling River downstream of Bourke. Only in flood will both rivers meet each other. The Warrego has only has small diversions for water storage and flows seasonally while the remainder of the year it forms large water holes.
The Paroo River is unregulated intermitted, flowing mainly when heavy rains fall in its northern catchment. It begins south of the Gowan Range and flows into western N.S.W, usually as far as the flood plains south of Wanaarring. The Paroo only joins the Darling River in the wettest of years.
Both catchments have been important to Aboriginal people for over 25,000 years. Many Aboriginal tribes retain a connection with the region, and their history, culture and livelihoods are closely intertwined with its river systems. Europeans settled the area in the mid 19th century.
