Hotels in Murray River, Australia

The Murray River winds through southeastern Australia, famous for its houseboat cruises and riverside wineries. Summers (December-February) can reach over 100°F (38°C), perfect for kayaking or swimming in the river, while mild winters (June-August, around 50-60°F or 10-15°C) are ideal for cycling between cellar doors in the Rutherglen wine region. If you visit in autumn, you can catch the Echuca Moama Paddlesteamer Festival, where historic paddleboats still chug along the water.
