Echuca
Echuca is a vibrant and historic town located on the banks of the Murray River. Established in the early 1840s, Echuca was once the largest inland port in Australia, with a fleet of paddle-steamers delivering agricultural produce for transfer to freight trains bound for Melbourne. Today, visitors to Echuca can experience the town's rich history by visiting the historic port precinct, where they can see the restored wharf and take a ride on a paddle-steamer. The town is not just about its port, however. Echuca is a vibrant modern city with many attractions for visitors to enjoy, including galleries and museums, wineries, bush walking tracks, restaurants, and more.
