Where river, forest and culture come together.
Barmah is home to one of Australia's most significant natural and cultural landscapes.
Located around 30 minutes from Echuca Moama, the township sits beside Barmah National Park, home to the Victorian section of the world's largest river red gum forest. It's also a place of deep significance to the Yorta Yorta people whose connection to Country stretches back thousands of years.
Begin your visit at the Dharnya Centre to gain a deeper understanding of the area's natural and cultural significance, then experience Country through the Yamyabuc Cultural Guided Walk, where Yorta Yorta stories and traditions bring the landscape to life.
To see the river from a different perspective, step aboard Kingfisher Cruises and explore the winding waterways of Dhungala (Murray River) and the surrounding wetlands.
For visitors seeking nature, culture and a deeper understanding of the region, Barmah is an essential stop.
