Mid Murray Council is a popular tourist destination and has a large network of high quality parks, gardens and reserves. Council provides recreation facilities in all towns and river areas.  These are regularly maintained in a clean and safe condition.  Numerous festivals and events are held each year on our reserves, the biggest being the January ‘Sounds by the River’ Event at Mannum which is successful in attracting thousands of visitors to our area.  The beauty of the river combined with our excellent climate and proximity to Adelaide make the Mid Murray Council area ideal for events.

There are plenty of locations throughout the Mid Murray to keep the children occupied.  Many of the townships throughout the region provide ovals for recreational enjoyment.  Below are lists of Council’s playgrounds, reserves, boat ramps, camping and lookouts:
