Enjoy our river

Playground of the inland

Hay is situated on the picturesque Murrumbidgee River, and has numerous river reserves ideal for camping, picnics and water sports. The riverbanks of the Murrumbidgee are the place to find seclusion and relax under towering river red gums. In the summer the river is a popular spot for water-skiing, canoeing, swimming and fishing.

Cruising the Murrumbidgee

Experiencing the river by boat you will see some of Hay's unique river wildlife, majestic river red gums and you will also hear nature as you meander along this wonderful river. It's a great opportunity to see the remnants of Hay's once thriving Riverport including old wharves and historic buildings. The river is ideal for kayaks, canoes and small –medium boats.
