Activities
LOTS OF FUN FOR EVERYONE
With the park itself situated right on the banks of the beautiful Murray River there is plenty of opportunity for a whole variety of river activities all year round.
The year-round sun makes Renmark a great destination no matter what the season. There are galleries made for browsing, fruit stalls to stock up on the district’s famous products, beckoning wineries, billabongs and secluded creeks to explore by canoe, and fish and yabbies to be caught. What about the kids? Why not ‘slide’ down to the spectacular Monash Adventure Playground, enjoy a family picnic and let the kids tire themselves out!
