The Riverland is less than three hours drive from Adelaide and extends from Blanchetown in the west, to Paringa in the east. In between these two towns is around 300 km of winding river encompassing some of the most spectacular scenery you are likely to see anywhere in Australia.

The history of irrigation and settlement in the Riverland is recaptured in museums and restored paddle steamers, old stock routes, and historical villages. The Riverland Ngarridejeri tribe's culture and heritage can also be discovered in the many canoe trees, artefacts and art of the region.

There is an abundance of birdlife to observe and National Parks and Game Reserves to explore. Indeed, the Riverland is home to some of the most spectacular and unique native flora and fauna in this state.

Australian's gravitate to water like bees to honey, and as you might expect the river is a major attraction for visitors wishing to indulge in all manner of water activities; from skiing, fishing, and sailing, to river cruises, houseboating and everything in between!

Most of the main towns of the Riverland are situated along the banks of the Murray, and these offer an ideal setting to take a picnic basket, bottle of Riverland wine, and simply enjoy the tranquillity and magic of this great river.

The Riverland is home to the Monash Adventure Park, boasting to be the largest playground in South Australia, the Big Orange, Loxton Historical Village, the Bookmark Biosphere, unique art galleries, home grown wineries, museums, and so many more, you really have to visit.
