Backpacking Along The Murray

The Murray River is a popular stop with backpackers looking to replenish their funds by working on one of the many local farms, orchards or vineyards.

Many hostels are in central locations and offer assistance with job placements, plus orgnaise local tours and other activities.

Balcony on Sixth Lodge
This Lodge is conveniently located in a heritage-listed stone building in the centre of Murray Bridge.

It offers superior and budget style rooms with light breakfast included, plus state of the art facilities such as large screen LCD TVs and broadband wireless internet.

River cruises and guided tours of the area can be arranged.

Nomads on the Murray
Located in Kingston-on-Murray, Nomads is a converted motel, which has been fully refurbished resulting in a funky look that will impress even the most discerning backpacker.

A great place to relax is Nomad’s large verandah overlooking the Murray River with views of the creeks and waterways as they weave their way through native bushland.

The manager is keen to organise fun, relaxing or adventurous activities to make sure a great and memorable time is had by all.

Hostels are also located in Bamera, Loxton and Berri or why not hire a houseboat with friends or local travellers?
