Robust, professional packaging and tracking provided for all parcels. 280 pages. The Great Darling Anabranch is located in south-west New South Wales. This ancient path of the Darling River extends 460km from its junction with the Darling River (south of Menindee Lakes) to the Murray River, about 20 km west of Wentworth. It ceased to be the river channel when the river changed its path 11,000 years ago. The Anabranch was an important area for Aboriginal people for about 27,000 years. Since white settlement in the 1860s, landholders have used the Anabranch for stock and domestic purposes. Following construction of the Menindee Lakes scheme in the 1960's, an annual replenishment flow was made available from Lake Cawndilla to the landholders along the Anabranch.
