Murray River Region
Following the curves of the nation’s greatest river, the Murray River Council covers towns like Moama, Mathoura and Barham. River red gum forests line the banks, and houseboats, water skiing and fishing are part of everyday life. Agriculture flourishes on irrigated flats, with citrus orchards and vineyards prominent. Locals camp on sandbars along the Barmah Choke, a narrow section of river where the current quickens, and walk a little‑known track to Moira Lake at dawn when pelicans glide across the mirror‑like water.
Murray River Council has an approximate area of 12,000 km².
It is within the state electorate of Murray.
