Collarenebri is a quiet country town of approximately 500 people, located in northern New South Wales, 707 kilometres north-west of Sydney. The town was established in 1860 when William Earl established a pub called ‘The Squatter’s Arms’ on the Barwon River. Within the township there are still many historical buildings dating back to 1910. Cutler’s Store was originally opened in 1937, and now operates as a cafe and takeaway food store, with locals claiming it to be the best freshly cooked food in town. Collarenebri is said to be the best inland fishing location in Australia, with many fantastic fishing spots located along the Barwon River.
There are plenty of parking options in town, with short term stays available at no cost at the Collarenebri Primitive Camping Ground, located within the Collarenebri Sportsground. A free dump point and potable water is also available at this location. For longer stays, the Collarenebri Showground allows parking for up to 7 days, at a small fee of $11 per van per night.
