National Parks and Reserves

There’s plenty of space to spread out and find your little slice of river frontage in Murrumbidgee Regional Park. A beautiful pocket of bushland, you’ll enjoy a true bush experience while still being close to town. Popular with campers who don’t want to leave their dogs at home, the sandy beaches and calm river are perfect for kayaking, boating and swimming. Try your luck fishing for redfin and bream or find a secluded spot to enjoy a good book and watch the world go by.

Murrumbidgee Valley Regional Park is part of the longest continuous tract of river red gum forest in the world. These unique red gum forests provide a safe haven to koalas which you may spot in their branches. Among the majestic trees, birdwatchers might catch a glimpse of scared kingfishers, barking owls and threatened superb parrots.

You can visit for a daytrip to enjoy a barbecue or picnic and some walking, but it’s better to stay longer to enjoy all that the park has to offer. Follow the river as it meanders through the bushyou really are spoilt for camping spots.
