Welcome to the Gannawarra

The Gannawarra Shire is within a three-hour drive from Melbourne and around an hour drive from the regional centres of Bendigo, Echuca and Swan Hill.

Your time in the area can be spent relaxing or fishing on the Murray River, water skiing with friends on one of the many freshwater lakes or taking in the majestic Red gum forests.  Try exploring the unique and diverse environments of wildlife, waterbirds and plants of the Gunbower Creek, Gunbower National Park and Gunbower Island.

Discover the many towns across the region, all with their appealing qualities and welcoming hospitality. Then add beautiful golf courses, red gum sawmill, wetlands, tracks, trails, modern shopping opportunities and special places of interest which make the Gannawarra Shire an idyllic area to visit.

Enjoy the change of pace and the opportunity to relax and get close to nature. Take up the chance to connect with all our region has to offer; enjoy and have fun!
