BIG4 Loxton Riverfront Caravan Park

Murray River


On the gum-studded Habels Bend, 2km from town, this affable riverside park bills itself as 'The Quiet One'. You can hire a canoe and fishing rod and go for a paddle across to Murray River National Park. There's a free nine-hole golf course here too (usually sandy, occasionally flooded).
