http://dubbo.org Information for visitors to Dubbo, NSW Mon, 30 Jan 2012 08:51:25 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 http://dubbo.org/explore/macquarie-river#comment-66463 dave Mon, 18 Jul 2011 01:19:34 +0000 http://dubbo.org/recreation-and-parks/macquarie-river.html#comment-66463 the maquarie is a fantastic river with lots of character I go there a lot. Unfortunately it suffers from littering, Im constantly picking up rubbish,lots and lots of broken bottles which stop me from letting the kids more than two feet from me, lots of dog mess, lots of fast food wrappers (which i often put in a big heap and burn on one of the numerous old camp fires which you find everywhere) I saw a "clean up the Maquarie" event advertised ,which I got very excited about, but It was cancelled and not rescheduled. People should respect the river, but they dont! so how about cleaning it up occasionally ? I see the same rubbish sitting there (until I have to pick it up). Dubbo council are always banging on about how to attract visitors, how about cleaning up and making the most of its moste amazing feature??? the maquarie is a fantastic river with lots of character I go there a lot.

No white water. But plenty of places to go for a paddle. There's also meant to be some nice places to canoe up the top end of Lake Burrendong near Wellington.
