Riverina and the Murray

The Riverina and the Murray region is an important agricultural area within New South Wales. The region is a great place to explore Alps, goldfields, rivers, valleys, as well as wineries found in this area of New South Wales. Located on the beautiful Murrumbidgee River, Wagga Wagga is the main centre of the Riverina region. The region is famous for its fruit and other agricultural products. Farms of peaches, grapes, oranges, and other delights announce your entrance into one of Australia's most magnificent food and wine producing areas. Many operators are more than happy to share their wisdom and knowledge with technical tours for visitors.

Beginning in the Australian Alps, the Murray River is a magnificent example of Australian nature. The Murray River travels over 2, 500 kilometres forming the border between Victoria and New South Wales before ending its journey in South Australia. The mild climate makes it ideally suited for year round activities and touring. Some activities include skydiving, gliding, canoeing, water skiing, white water rafting, horse riding, bike tours boating, and fishing. For the more adventurous there is ballooning. The less adventurous can enjoy visits to award winning wineries, art galleries, museums, botanic gardens such as Burnbank Gardens and historic Yabtree in Wagga Wagga, or just stroll around heritage villages and through historic town walks.
