Barham-Koondrook Spring Highlights

The twin towns of Barham (in NSW) and Koondrook (in Victoria), located on the mighty Murray River, ooze charm and character galore and offer many choices for a day trip, weekend or extended holiday.

Not surprisingly, many activities here are based around the iconic Murray River including wetland cruises, fishing, camping, bushwalking, boating and canoeing. Combine these with a diverse and exciting range of eateries, a collection of individual country retail shops, niche farm gate experiences and the many unique markets and events nestled along the river, and you’ll quickly see why Barham Koondrook has much to offer the seasoned traveller or the occasional visitor.
