Winding glimmering and snake like through the landscape of the region, the central Murray River etched it’s current course after a geological shift upstream near Barmah created the “narrows” or “choke” 30,000 years ago.
Only when seen from the air can one appreciate the significance of the Murray River and the way that it’s waters create and sustain wetlands, expansive Redgum Forests, agriculture and communities. The Murray River country at Swan Hill is home to the Wamba Wamba traditional owners and upstream at Barham the Barapa Barapa people.
