Our Wonderfully Diverse Region

About Robinvale Euston

Robinvale-Euston is a little bit different from the hustle and bustle that some holiday destinations can be. However, long before Europeans settled the Robinvale area it is believed the land was inhabited by the Latje Latje Aboriginal tribe.

Nowadays with our sunny Mediterranean climate, our idyllic region is the perfect holiday environment for all the family and for those wanting a relaxed and fuss-free break, with plenty to see and do in the area if you choose.

We can boast one of the widest stretches of the Murray River for many kilometres, which means you can enjoy all sorts of water front activities – fish, water ski, swim and camp, bike ride, bird watch and bush walk.

Our vibrant townships on the Murray River comprise over 22 different nationalities and makes it a unique multicultural melting pool. According to the 2011 census we have a resident population of around 4,500. Although as many of the locals will tell you, this is severely understated. They believe a more accurate figure is between 8,000-10,000 people, due to the seasonal employment nature of the area.

Take in the breadth of horticultural and agricultural diversity and industry that this region has to offer.

The Euston-Robinvale Bridge spanning the Murray between our two towns makes us the closest point to visit Mungo National Park only an hour and half away.

The unique Mallee National Parks of Hattah Kulkyne, Murray Sunset and Wyperfield are also a comfortable day trip.

The wine regions of Coonawarra, Barossa and McLaren Vale, as well as the cities of Adelaide and Melbourne are all comfortably accessible within a day from Robinvale-Euston with good inland roads through to Sydney and Canberra as well.

You’re not far from where you might want to visit next, so slow down and take your time when you visit us.

The lifestyle here in Robinvale-Euston is genuinely friendly and relaxed.
