Barmah State Park
Barmah State Park (7,900 hectares) and Barmah State Forest (21,600 hectares) are on the Murray River flood plain between Echuca and Tocumwal, about 225 kilometres north of Melbourne. Together they make up the largest River Red Gum forest in Victoria. Equally, the area could be called a wetland as much of it is frequently flooded.
Things to Do
The best times to visit are late spring, summer and early autumn.
* Visit the Tourist Information Centre in Echuca for information on river tours
* Take the 60 kilometre (two hour) self-drive tour to sites of historical interest in the Forest, including the Muster Yard, Punt Paddock Lagoon, Cornalla Landing and Green Engine
* Follow the walking tracks, varying in length from four to seven km. Walking is most enjoyable on cool, sunny days, but tracks in the forest can be impassable after rain
* See 500-year-old river red gums in Barmah Forest
* Try canoeing or fishing on the Murray River
