Longitude 145.4827800 (145° 28′ 58″ E)

About 37km east of Louth on Louth Rd a track leads north to the bank of the Darling River near Humes Ck. There are some nice old River Redgums here, but the ground cover has been devastated by overgrazing. The north bank by contrast still has good ground cover in Toorale NP, the contrast between the two banks is stark. Humes Ck is usually dry but the river usually has some water in it.

Camp rating 8 there is no established campsite here.
