Of course, the mighty river dominates the landscape. Before rail and highways came, the river was the trade route. You can still step aboard one of the fabulous paddle-steamers and tour the past: the history is all around you on the Murray. The waterways and the many lakes also provide great opportunity for water activities including angling.
Nature reserves, important wetlands and national parks of world significance are also in abundance along the Murray, such as Mungo National Park, with its extraordinarily ancient human skeletal remains, and a record of human occupation dating back 40,000 years.
See the remnants of a 19th century trading route when you board a paddle-steamer, or when you visit the river-town museums at Albury-Wodonga, Echuca-Moama, Wentworth, Mildura and Swan Hill.
The Murray is surrounded by magnificent golf courses many of which offer on course accommodation. Fully equipped club houses and glorious, tree-lined fairways make the Murray a natural choice for an outstanding golfing holiday.
Watered by the Murray, the rich agricultural land welcomes you with its abundance of high-quality fruit, vegetables, gourmet produce and fine wine vintages. Producers, local restaurateurs and winemakers have shaped an exceptional corridor of food and wine.
