Rydalmere, ferry wharf

This ferry wharf, on the northern side of the Parramatta River, is in the north western suburb of Rydalmere. A regular service is provided by RiverCat ferries, part of Sydney Ferries, on the Parramatta River route. Sometimes, due to flooding or natural low tides in the shallow waters of upper Parramatta River, some trips between Parramatta and Rydalmere are replaced by buses.

  5. It doesn't look like a very wide crossing!

    WATER

    Water in a drop of rain,
    Water swirling down the drain;
    Water clinging to the trees,
    Water filling up the seas;
    Water frozen, water free,
    Water is the stuff for me!

  7. Magical Mystical Teacher, the Parramatta River narrows considerably upstream at Rydalmere, heading up to Parramatta.

  10. PerthDailyPhoto, it doesn't flood that often. We have to have a lot of rain over a long period of time, for that to happen.
