Golf on the Murray
About Golf on the Murray
  • A golfing haven waiting to be explored.

    Australia’s most majestic and historically significant river has inspired a recreational haven that seamlessly combines natural beauty and world-class golfing facilities, attracting professional and leisure players from across the globe.

    Golf courses near Swan Hill offer scenic greens and fairways, highlighted by the premier championship golf course at the Murray Downs Resort. Large greens are undulating, fast and complimented by perfectly manicured and groomed fairways.

    The Barham Golf and Country Club boasts an 18 hole championship course with magnificent grass greens, challenging bunkers and four new holes designed by Ross Watson.

    Further along in bustling Echuca-Moama, you’ll find golf can be conveniently mixed with pampering and sightseeing. It was once the hub of Australia’s riverboat trade and paddle-steamers still grace the mighty waters.

    Nearby is the well-regarded Rich River Golf Club Resort, with its two award winning 18 hole championship golf courses. The West Course has traditional tree lined fairways with small tricky greens. The East Course was redesigned by Peter Thompson in 1998 and has large greens, wide fairways and Thompson signature bunkers.

    Nestled on the riverbanks is the impressive Tocumwal Golf Club with its Captains Course offering quick greens and gently undulating fairways, and the heavily treed Presidents Course.

    In neighbouring Cobram-Barooga there are two championship courses waiting to be experienced at the Cobram Barooga Golf Club. The 18 hole Old Course features a clever design with narrow, treelined fairways sure to put any golfer to the test and the West Course has far wider fairways and larger greens with many more slopes.

    Yarrawonga and Border Golf Club is Australia’s largest public access golfing complex with 45 holes. The Murray Course meanders through towering river gums and sandy river flats where numerous lakes and lagoons demand precision and the 56 bunker Lake Course requires pure skill.

    Midway between Sydney and Melbourne, Albury-Wodonga is an important gateway to great golfing. An impressive clubhouse makes the 18 hole Commercial Golf Resort in Albury a must visit for the golfing enthusiast.

    Along the Murray River, you’ll never be far from a golf club waiting you to rise to the challenge.
