Island SanctuaryThe visitor's centre has a pamphlet on the island sanctuary where there are kangaroos, possums, bats, and birds aplenty amidst river red gum. It contains the burial site of 'Old Jack', a member of the Melville gang, bushrangers who visited Deniliquin in 1851.
Waring GardensWaring Gardens, in Cressy St (the main thoroughfare), were originally a chain of lagoons associated with the Edward River. The park was established in 1881 and named after Deniliquin's first town clerk. A bridge was built and a band rotunda added in 1887. Numerous Moreton Bay figs, palms, willows and other trees date from the 19th century.
Ute on poleIn celebration of the nationally reknowned Deni – Play on the Plains Festival & World Record Ute Muster the community erected the symbolic and one of a kind ute on a pole. Situated on the edge of the beautiful Edward River and beside the National Bridge, this iconic symbol attracts hundreds of tourists every year. Built back in 2001 the ute on the pole with the classic Holden WB on the top cannot be missed and confirms that Deniliquin is the Ute Capital of the World.
