    Overnight at Nyngan

    April 19, 2025 in Australia ⋅ ☀️ 27 °C

    We are trying not to travel more than about 250km at a time which is why we ended up at Nyngan. I was pleasantly surprised with Nyngan. The riverside caravan park was very nice - a lot of activity on the river with speed boats (it is the Easter weekend)

    Rode our bikes into town and found the Big Bogan (Nyngan's contribution to Australia's Big Things). We only stayed overnight and upon leaving we checked out the solar farm made up of over 1.3 million solar panels.

    Only a short entry - next stop Cobar where we will spend a few days.    Read more
