Where is Mid Murray
Just 1 hour East of Adelaide, the Mid Murray region is diverse, dynamic and distinctive. From ancient rock formations in Palmer to the sweeping rich plains surrounding Cambrai and Sedan, Mid Murray offers you a diverse landscape stretching out from the iconic River Murray meandering throughout the region. Majestic limestone cliff faces form a formidable backdrop along the river system from Cadell to Caloote embracing every visitor within their reach to recharge and relax in this distinctive region. Agriculture extends throughout the Mid Murray terrain from Truro to Tunkgillo and stretches through the heart of the Mid Murray region and surrounds. The Mid Murray is strategically located and with only a short distance to the Barossa Valley via Keyneton, provides residents with the opportunities to explore and enjoy easily accessible services of neighboring regions and the metropolitan area.
The major township of Mannum offers a commercial and retail centre on the banks of the Murray with other river townships of Bowhill, Swan Reach, Blanchetown, Purnong, Walker Flat and Morgan offering direct retail service to the houseboating industry and general communities. Towns across the region follow the major transport routes to Sydney, Melbourne and the Riverland.
Mid Murray has a diverse agricultural base centred around broad-acre farming, intensive animal production, viticulture and horticulture including citrus, olives, almonds and onions. Many towns in the region have well established comfortable housing, education and community services. Proximity to Adelaide is driving population growth. Mid Murray has planned for the population increase by providing above average housing blocks which will enable residential development for an expanding local, retirement, recreational and regional workforce. Mid Murray boasts good quality education for both primary and secondary students and health care for the wider community.
