You’ve reached the end of the Barcoo Way here in Windorah, but there’s still plenty to see while in town. An interesting drive down to the Cooper Creek is via the Nature Drive. This unsealed track complete with interpretive signage will lead you on a self-guided native plant discovery tour. Around 2km out of town it’s pretty hard to miss the five dazzling mirror dishes of the Windorah Solar Farm. There’s a viewing area and plenty of information on how this farm came to be. Another interesting attraction is the Whitula Gate Museum featuring an original slab hut built as a boundary riders hut. It’s just behind the Visitor Information Centre. Find out more on show at the Museum here. You may have passed the Cooper Creek on the way into town. Did you know that it’s the only place in the world where two rivers merge to form a creek? The Thomson and…… you guessed it, the Barcoo, merge around 40 kms upstream of Windorah. From here, the waters of the Cooper flow to Lake Eyre. What a journey!
