6 Day / 5 Night Cruises :
Albury to Echuca
       
 

This section of the river is rarely cruised except for tinnies & canoes. Irrigation water is released from the Hume Dam down to Lake Mulwala where it is released down the Yarrawonga Canal into Victoria and the Mulwala Canal into NSW. Irrigation water is released from Lake Mulwala down the Murray River to Torrumbarry, above Torrumbarry water is released down the National Channel into Victoria.

The flows in these sections are the highest during peak irrigation season. Cruising through these sections is varied and can be quite hazardous due to swift currents and many snags. A highlight on this cruise is the Barmah Choke just below Picnic Point.

At Yarrawonga the boat will be transported around the dam as there is no lock. The towns of Corowa, Tocumwal, and Albury are all large regional centres.

 

Price includes ...

  • Cruise & Coach Return
  • All Meals and Accommodation
