Wentworth suburb profile

Wentworth sits at the confluence of the Darling and Murray rivers in far south-west New South Wales and is defined by its riverfront setting, boat ramps, parks and a heritage port character. It operates as a rural service centre for surrounding irrigation and dryland farming, with a main street of low-rise shops and historic brick and timber buildings that reflect its frontier past. The community includes multi-generational farming families and people drawn to a laid-back waterside lifestyle that centres on fishing, boating and riverside walks. The Sturt Highway provides the principal road link across state borders and to regional services nearby.
