Murray Bridge is located in South Australia and is situated 76km east-south-east of Adelaide, and 77km north of Meningie.

Today the city is the centre of a major agricultural district which is driven by dairy, chicken raising, pig breeding, tomato and snow pea growing.Murray Bridge Showground offers both powered and unpowered sites, with the ability to park-up for a full week. There is a dump point and potable water at Railway Terrace and North Terrace, and for a full range of all facilities and services in town, be sure to visit the Murray Bridge Visitor Information Centre. Although many of the Murray Bridge attractions are water based, such as skiing and swimming, there are many exciting on land attractions that are well worth a visit. Just out of Murray Bridge there is a new open range zoo and breeding ground for arid and grassland animals at the Monarto Zoological Park. Many species of animals roam this 1000 hectare site.

Avoca is located in the heart of the Pyrenees Shire, in central west Victoria. Gold was first found in Victoria in 1849 in the Pyrenees State Forest near Avoca, and by June the following year, Avoca, with a population of 16,000 was regarded as one of Victoria’s important gold rush districts. Today gold still attracts fortune seeking prospectors to the district; however most visitors stop over in the Pyrenees region to sample their renowned wine and enjoy magnificent state forests. There are over 30 cellar doors providing a large variety of wines from savoury, spicy reds to sparkling wine, Chardonnay and Sauvignon Blanc. Avoca Riverside Park, Dundas Street, offers visitors short-term parking for up to 48 hours.  A dump point and potable water can be found outside Avoca Caravan Park in Faraday Street. The township is surrounded by mountain ranges and is the perfect environment for bike riding and bushwalking. With the backdrop of the Pyrenees Ranges and the Avoca River running through the centre of town, Avoca is an idyllic rural town to visit. Many of the buildings lining the streets today are still in their original condition with the gorgeous main street maintaining a historic façade that harkens back to the gold rush days. There is ample parking along their impressive divided main street and the modern amenities and services will impress travellers. Cafes, specialty shops and galleries now line the main street, creating an excellent stopping point before heading out to the many attractions. Just outside the township of Avoca, you can escape to the Pyrenees State Forest where you can sit around a campfire under a clear sky. One of the more popular locations is the Waterfalls Picnic Ground which is the perfect setting to rest your RV, with walking tracks and 4WD tracks to lead you in and through the State Forest.Tourist/Visitor Centre       122 High St, Avoca VICPh: 03 5465 100aic@pyrenees.vic.gov.auwww.pyreneestourism.com.au Casual Parking       172 High St, Avoca; Dundas St, AvocaShort Term Parking + Long Term Parking             Avoca Riverside Park, Dundas St, Avoca, (48hr)    Waterfalls Campground, Vinoca Rd, Avoca, (10km), pets OK, toilets & BBQ facilities availThe Free Camp is located at Lions Park in Creek St. Dump Point  Opposite Avoca Caravan Park, 2 Liebig St, AvocaPotable Water          Lions Club Park, Creek St, Avoca; Avoca Caravan Park, 2 Liebig St, AvocaHospital        24hr ambulance service avail in Avoca, closest hospital is in Maryborough (26km)Pharmacy     Avoca Gold Chemist, 107 High St, Ph: 03 5465 3021Supermarket            Friendly IGA, 172 High St, Avoca, Ph: 03 5465 3095
