Sun Country
Yarrawonga Mulwala known as ‘Sun Country on the Murray’, has a magnificent climate all year round, boasting more sunshine hours than its far northern neighbours.
The original residents of the Yarrawonga Mulwala region were the Pangerang Tribe. The tribe is attributed with naming these twin towns located on the great Murray River. Yarrawonga derives its name from ‘yarra’, which means water running over rocks, and ‘wonga’ from the wonga pigeon, prolific in the area at the time. ‘Mulwala’, on the other hand, translates to large lagoon.
In May 1838, Captain Charles Sturt discovered a large number of Aborigines inhabiting the area. They survived by hunting and fishing in and around the river and lagoons, now covered by Lake Mulwala, which were abundant in fish, tortoise, duck and other game.
Today Yarrawonga Mulwala is an aquatic playground that offers plenty to see and do. Make sure you head down to Lake Mulwala for some water skiing, wakeboarding or tube riding. Fishing is also popular in the area, so prepare yourself for a catch of the day.
Explore the river beaches and walking tracks, cruise along the river, take in the museums and galleries, play a round of golf, enjoy the local markets, and discover the Sun Country on the Murray Farm Gate Trail to sample local wines and fresh produce, all locally grown.
With such perfect weather conditions, golfing is a huge drawcard for visitors to the region. Enthusiasts are privy to a range of top notch golf courses including the Yarrawonga Mulwala Golf Club Resort and Black Bull Golf Course.
In November, Yarrawonga heats up when it plays host to the Lake Mulwala Rod Run. Get along to see some hot rods on vivid display.
The Sun Country region has so much to offer. Whether you’re here for an adventure, to relax and soak up some sunshine, do a little shopping or enjoy some great food and wine, the Sun Country on the Murray has a little something for everyone.

Water Activities
Lake Mulwala, located between Yarrawonga and Mulwala, and the Murray River are a Mecca for watersports in the area.
Water skiing, wakeboarding and tube riding are all popular activities here. If you don’t have your own boat, there are operators like Skin Ski & Surf who provide ski lessons and ski rides during the summer months.
You can also hire a pontoon boat, complete with a barbeque on board if you don’t want to organise your own barbeque. If you feel like being waited on, book a trip on the Paradise Queen or P.S. Cumberoona paddle steamer, offering a range of lake cruises.
An eco-friendly way to experience this aquatic playground is to hire a kayak and explore the shady creeks and hidden wetlands. Another option is to take the family on a journey down the river and stop on the sandy shores to picnic or fish.
If you’re a fishing enthusiast, then you’ve come to the right place. In the cooler months, cray fishing is available and, in the warmer months, you can challenge yourself to catch the elusive Murray cod. December brings with it the annual Cod Classic Fishing Competition with Lake Mulwala flush with yellow belly and Murray cod. Many stores in the area including Lake Mulwala Fish Camp & Ski, Intents Fishing & Outdoors, and Cobram Outdoors, sell fishing gear and provide tips on the best spots to lure a great catch.
The ghost gums in the region offer a protective home to many bird species such as cockatoos, galahs, ducks, seagulls and kingfishers, a delight for the keen birdwatcher. Black swans and their signets grace the lake as do the majestic pelicans. The river backwaters are where you can witness these beautiful birds, which offer fantastic photo opportunities for the keen nature photographer.

Kayaking on the Murray River, Yarrawonga, Credit: Tourism Australia
From an exciting tube ride to scooting along on a super fast jet ski to a tranquil kayak paddle, this aquatic playground offers fun for all ages.
Lake Mulwala
When the lake was first created, the river red gum forest that inhabited the area remained. Today, the silver trunks of the gums glisten in the sunlight, slowly falling as time goes by.
The river red gums provide a highly productive breeding ground for fish, attracting dedicated fishing fanatics year round in pursuit of the elusive Murray cod and cray, red fin and yellow belly.
The trees also act to prevent erosion of the lake’s floor and foreshore, and they create a natural windbreak which helps to minimise erosion of the lake’s edge.
Lake Mulwala is far more than an irrigation storage. The lake is a recreational haven for water-based activities. A cruise on Lake Mulwala will take you on a journey through the flooded red gums that now provide wonderful nesting sites for cockatoos, galahs, pelicans, ibis, eagles and a variety of other birds that call this region their home.

A truly unforgettable sight with its majestic and ghostly river red gums.
Fishing
Popular areas to fish in Yarrawonga Mulwala include Drain Lake, Kyffins Reserve and the Everglades.
Opportunities to fish are plentiful in the region. Some of the species in the area include:
MURRAY COD
Protected during September, October and November (their breeding season) and if caught must be returned to the water unharmed. Best bait: bardi grubs, yabbies, shrimps and scrubworms.
TROUT COD
A protected species and, therefore, taking or attempting to take them is prohibited.
GOLDEN PERCH (YELLOW BELLY)
Can still be found in large numbers in some locations. Best bait: crayfish, shrimp, yabbies and scrubworms. Not usually caught on bardi grubs.
SILVER PERCH
An endangered species that may only be caught in Lake Mulwala within limits. Best bait: shrimp or scrubworms. Must catch and release in the Murray River.
MURRAY CRAYFISH
Found in the Murray River, and open to fish May to August. Crayfish carrying eggs or young under their tail are protected and must be returned to the water. Best bait: carp, bullock liver and ox heart.
For recreational fishers over the age of 18, you must pay a NSW fishing fee to be eligible to fish in the region’s waters. Recreational fishers also need to be aware of the fishing rules and regulations that apply such as bag and size limits, methods, the use of traps and nets, and other regulations. For more information on fees, and rules and regulations, visit www.dpi.nsw.gov.au

The Murray River is known by golfers throughout the world for its cleverly designed golf courses that exude serenity.
The Yarrawonga Mulwala Golf Club Resort, located on Golf Club Road, Mulwala, will no doubt engender an appetite for more golf with its challenging courses nestled amongst fertile surrounds. The course is sure to call you back again and again.
The Black Bull Golf Course is another great choice for golfing enthusiasts.

Chinaman’s Island Nature Trail
WHAT MAKES THIS WETLAND WITH ITS TREES AND WOODLAND SO SPECIAL
For Lake Mulwala, the wetland in the cove between the island and the main shoreline is an unusual feature because of its relatively large size and well-developed aquatic vegetation.
In this changed landscape, years after the lake was built, we can see how natural forces have helped bring about a balanced ecosystem. The higher sandy ridge and a shallow inlet have been further modified by man so we can now enjoy a natural and pleasing environment.
Unlike the lake, where retaining banks and walls create deeper edges being sheltered from the prevailing winds, these shallow edges and seasonal changes provide ideal conditions in which sedges and rushes thrive.
The reserve can be divided into several zones each supporting a different range of flora and fauna: riparian, wetland and woodland.
WHERE THE NAME CAME FROM
The origin of Chinaman’s Island is historically unclear but anecdotal references suggest that the area was a former farm and market garden, and had employed a Chinese worker. Or previously it may have been the site of an actual Chinese market garden.
DISTANCE OF THE WALKING TRACK
The track is a 2km return walk from the entrance, located at the Yarrawonga Yacht Club off River Road. If you would prefer a shorter walk, enter from Botts Road.
PICNIC AREAS
Table and seats are available for picnics off the Botts Road entrance, beside the rotunda. The track also features a grassed area off River Road near the Yacht Club, which has a children’s playground and amenities. This area provides views of Lake Mulwala and is a great spot just to sit and relax.
