Enjoy a Quiet Riverside Stay in the Heart of Echuca

Tucked away in a peaceful pocket of town, Rich River Tourist Park is a relaxed, compact park that makes slowing down easy. Just a short stroll to the Murray River and close to Echuca’s town centre, it’s an ideal base for travellers who want comfort, convenience and a calm place to come home to at the end of the day.

With spacious sites, pet-friendly cabins and a welcoming atmosphere, the park suits couples, solo travellers and those exploring with their four-legged companions. Cool off in the swimming pool, fire up the BBQ in the undercover area or simply unwind and enjoy the quiet — all while being moments from the best of the region.

The Perfect Time to Visit

With the busy Christmas/New Year period wrapped up, late summer and early autumn bring warm days, pleasant evenings and fewer crowds. It’s the sweet spot to experience Echuca at your own pace.

From the park, you can wander into town along riverside walking and cycling trails, explore the historic Port of Echuca precinct or settle in for a relaxed afternoon by the water. It’s easy, unhurried travel — exactly how a river town should be enjoyed.

Explore History, Nature and Regional Gems

Echuca is rich in stories and experiences. Learn about the town’s paddle-steamer past, browse local markets and festivals, or book a river cruise — from hourly sightseeing trips to lunch and sunset cruises.

If you feel like venturing further afield, regional drives open up a world of discovery: tranquil lakes for fishing and birdwatching, striking silo art trails, wineries, galleries and wide-open landscapes that showcase the best of northern Victoria.

There are also two off-leash parks nearby, making it easy for everyone to enjoy the holiday. Local clubs even offer courtesy buses to and from the park — no car required.
