Join Parklands for an adventure on the water! We will be paddling in canoes along the Murray River, with stops for walk n' talks!

These Park Explorer events are a new monthly series of Ranger-led experiences that will take you off the usual tracks to learn of the work behind the scenes and about the new trails nearing completion.

Parklands Albury Wodonga maintains over 176 km of nature trails together with community and partner organisations with no funds directly supporting this.

The funds raised from our monthly Park Explorer experiences will go towards keeping these trails open and well-maintained including contracting a local disability supported employee business to mow track heads and others to mow in remoter areas.

For the October event, participants will meet at the Noreuil Park canoe ramp before being transported to Doctors Point. From here, you will paddle downstream, stopping off at sites on Turtle and Browns Islands to check out current works and future plans. You will also learn about the biodiversity conservation achievements over the past two decades in these areas. You will end the tour back at Noreuil Park.
