Nature at the heart of it all

Visitors can truly unwind in the Swan Hill region, where some of the most extraordinary natural and cultural assets in Australia are close at hand to enjoy. Discover the treasures of the region by exploring natural bushland, lakes and billabongs set amongst hundreds of species of plants and colourful wildflowers.

One of those treasures is the picturesque Nyah Vinifera State Forest. This unique forest of red gum and box trees is a haven for wildlife and native plants. The perfect spot to camp or throw a fishing line, the unspoilt forest winds for 10km along this rugged section of the Murray River. Walk, picnic, explore. The choice is yours. Visitors will also find aboriginal sites here too, including burial grounds, canoe trees and middens.

Find your own way and be inspired by the many interesting self-drive tours taking in the natural features and attractions of this unique part of Australia.
