Casino,
NSW
The Richmond River town of Casino is often dubbed the city of parks. Council
staff tend more than 20 reserves - most of which are equipped with picnic
facilities - which works out at one park for every 500 Casino residents. Located
726 Klms north of Sydney.
The most distinctive of the parks is the Jabiru Geneebeinga Wetlands reserve
to the north of town. The wetlands - a sanctuary for a variety of wildlife,
including Australia's only stork, the jabiru - are circled by a miniature
railway system. The local reaches of the river boast some popular fishing
spots, and freshwater species are also caught off Cooke’s Weir.
Wide streets and shade verandahs add to Casino’s individual character,
which is displayed in the Folk Museum.
A farming town on the banks of the Richmond River with the remains of Irvington wharf. Also by the river is a plaque where first settlers crossed the waters in 1840 and founded the original station.
