Murray Valley National Park

Nestled along the Murray River in southwest New South Wales, just 30 minutes north of Echuca-Moama, Murray Valley National Park spans 12,000 hectares of tranquil floodplains, billabongs, and river red gums. A haven for wildlife and photographers, this park offers serene waterscapes and golden evening light.

Camping by the water’s edge under towering red gums is pure bliss. As evening falls, the low-angled sun bathes the trees in soft gold, their reflections shimmering in the slow-moving river—a painterly scene perfect for capturing.

The park is ideal for paddlers, with canoeing or kayaking along the Murray’s gentle bends revealing hidden billabongs teeming with life. Anglers target Murray cod and golden perch, while bushwalkers enjoy easy strolls on the River Track or the 10km Barmah Lakes Loop, where wetlands buzz with pelicans and black swans. Cyclists can explore flat, scenic trails.

Deeply significant to the Yorta Yorta people, the park holds millennia-old stories, evidenced by middens and scar trees. Its Barmah Forest, a Ramsar-listed wetland, sustains over 200 bird species, including the vulnerable superb parrot, within a delicate ecosystem.
