Explore Australia’s greatest river, The Murray, within the internationally recognised Riverland Ramsar Wetland in South Australia. Guided easy hiking combined with peaceful cruising immerses you in the landscape, the regions culture and history, and a new environmental stewardship.
Encounter diverse wildlife and waterbirds along the Murray River, creeks and old oxbow lagoons that meander through ancient red gum forests dwarfed by spectacular red ochre coloured cliffs. Enjoy a pre-breakfast sunrise hike along the cliffs on one morning to start your day.
The daily walking routes are on private property and conservancy areas with exclusive access for walk guests only.
The Murray River Walk is an easy 40km walk over primarily flat ground, ranging from 10-15km per day. This walk offers a unique opportunity for a mix of walking and river cruising, making it the perfect choice for people who are new to multi-day walking holidays.
Spend three nights on our new custom designed modern houseboat High River that cruises to your daily walking destination, complete with hot shower and top deck spa overlooking the river. Savour three course dinners each night created from local food and wine showcasing the produce of the Riverland food bowl, before celebrating your journey on the final day with a tour and lunch at the award winning Wilkadene Woolshed Brewery.
Walks depart in the cooler Australian winter months to ensure you have a truly enjoyable experience. The walk operates between May and September each year to capture autumn, winter and spring weather. May and September are slightly warmer months than June, July and August, however, winter days in South Australia’s Riverland region are typically sunny.
