What To Expect

Explore the tranquility and beauty of the Murray River on a self-guided Paddle ’n’ Picnic tour. Meander down the Murray River at your own pace, which features long pools, fast-moving channels, and a couple of small rapids along its forest-lined riverbanks. No need to worry about any logistics as Dwellingup Adventures does all the organizing for you. Meet at the Tours Desk, located in the Dwellingup Trails and Visitors Centre with the lovely Waypoints Café. From here you will get fitted out with your safety equipment and head to the start of the canoe experience, following the guide in your own vehicle. Leave your vehicle at the finish point and let Dwellingup Adventures transport you the 6 km upstream to the start, pointing out the river features along the way. Take your time paddling downstream stopping along the way for a picnic (included), flora and fauna spotting, and a relaxing swim (depending on the season) before paddling to the finish point at Dwaarlindjirraap, where you rendezvous with Dwellingup Adventures and your car.
