The Murray is at the heart of everything in Berri. From houseboats gently cruising past gum-lined banks to thrill-seekers skiing, wakeboarding, or kayaking, there’s no shortage of ways to get out on the water.
Exploring the Region
Just a short drive away, Renmark offers another slice of Riverland life, with historic paddle steamers, boutique wineries, and stunning riverfront parks. It’s the perfect day trip to pair with a Berri getaway. On this week's segment we discovered one of the top hidden gems for Families, the famous Monash Adventure Park, where kids can run wild on huge play equipment, explore water features, and enjoy plenty of picnic space. Additionally, the region is full of walking and hiking trails where you can stretch your legs along peaceful wetlands and river tracks.
