National Parks and Reserves

Camp out overnight by the river at one of the park’s many campgrounds.

The Eco certified Murray Valley National Park and nearby Murray Valley Regional Park were established to protect the majestic river red gum forests of the Riverina’s Ramsar-listed wetland.

Part of the largest continuous red gum forest in the world, this region hosts a unique ecosystem with over 60 threatened native animal species and 40 threatened plant species. It is also an important place for Aboriginal people.

There are lots of things to do. Go walking along the tranquil Gulpa Creek trail, fish for your dinner in the mighty Murray, paddle along the river in a canoe or kayak. If you’re interested in birds, be sure to check out Reedbeds Bird Hide and look out for the yellow rosella as you ride the park’s trails.
