The Flyers Creek is a river located in the Central West region of New South Wales, Australia. It's mostly a perennial river, which means it flows for most of the year. This creek is an important part of the larger Lachlan River system. The Lachlan River eventually flows into the huge Murray–Darling basin, one of Australia's biggest river systems.
There are plans to build a wind farm project near Flyers Creek. This project would use wind turbines to create clean energy.
Where Does Flyers Creek Flow?
Flyers Creek starts on the slopes of Mount Canobolas. This mountain is located south of a spot called Towac Pinnacle and west of Forest Reefs.
The creek then flows generally towards the south and southwest. After traveling about 30 km (19 mi), it joins with the Belubula River. This meeting point is north of a place called Millamolong.
