The distance would depend upon the force of each individual strike.
People don't have lightning supper powers
Lightning Ridge is not on the Darling River. It is not very far from the Narran River, which is a tributary of the Culgoa, which in turn is a tributary of the Darling. But no, it is not on the Darling River.
