Lake Wyara - Kilcowera Station

 

The Dowling Track up to Thargomindah was now open. We drove up to the station stay at Kilcowera Station. This is us at Cardenyabba lagoon.

Lake Wyara - Kilcowera Station.

While road to Lake Wyara was closed in the Currawinya National Park, the lake is accessible from Kilcowera Station and is part of the self drive tour.

Lake Wyara is salt water and clear blue as opposed to the muddy brown of the fresh water Numalla. This is because Lake Wyara is supplied only by local run off water and doesn't overflow.

We stumbled across this little water hole where the Zebra Finches were coming in for a drink.

No photo but one of the bores is called murder bore. Turns out there was an actual murder, with the body burnt and the bones thrown down the bore.

A fair effort, but the murderer was caught and convicted.
