Murray River Information
Aboriginal people revere it. Nineteenth century trade flourished on it. Mark Twain likened it to his beloved Mississippi. Fruit growers and wine makers recognise its bounty. Such is the power of the Murray River.
There are two tourism regions around South Australia's Murray River: Murraylands and Riverland. They stretch from Wellington in the west to Paringa in the east and cover landscapes of spectacular river and mallee scenery. Driving from the eastern states, it's only one and half hours from Mildura.
The Murraylands incorporates the vast Murray Mallee farming region to the east of the River Murray, reaching right to the Victorian border and sprawling south to the Dukes Highway.
The Riverland's restored paddle steamers, museums and villages recapture the history of the River Murray. Wetlands and billabongs teem with wildlife. Parks and reserves offer good walking trails and a range of facilities on site.
