Local Activities

While staying at the Murray Bridge Motor Inn, why not take a swing at the local golf club or a luxurious cruise along the Murray? Whether you’re visiting or here to stay there’s a lot to do in Murray Bridge!
Murray Bridge is the “crown” of the Murray Region, containing many attractions for people of all ages.
The Murray River is a picturesque site of house boats, paddle-steamers and happy, relaxed people. Sit back and relax while observing the beauty of this natural wonder.
Although many of the Murray Bridge attractions are water based, such as skiing and swimming, there are many exciting land attractions that are also 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 can roam this 1000 hectare site. Tourists have the opportunity to take a Safari Bus around the park with a personal guide.
