Murray Valley National Park, Nature reserve in Riverina region, Australia
Murray Valley National Park is a nature reserve along the Murray River in New South Wales that combines wetlands, forests, and river systems. The area spans different habitats that provide home to hundreds of animal and plant species.
The reserve was established in 2010 when several state forests were converted into a protected area. This creation enabled safeguarding large natural habitats along the important river system.
The land holds deep connections to Aboriginal communities, containing numerous sites that reflect the enduring presence of Indigenous peoples in the region.
Visitors will find several campgrounds along the river with direct water access. The main facilities are located at the primary riverbank sites and offer basic amenities for a stay.
The area holds one of the world's largest continuous river red gum forests. These forest formations provide habitat for rare animal species found nowhere else with such concentration.
