Must See
The replacement of the old Robinvale-Euston Bridge, which was finalised in 2006, saw the complete removal of the old, ageing structure and the construction of a new bridge with modern engineering.

The new structure replaced the archaic lifespan bridge, which was introduced as part of a railway extension that consequently failed in 1924.

There is one surviving element form the previous structure which was the lift span.

This has been erected in a nearby park in Robinvale and serves as a permanent display of the twin towns local history.

The Euston Lock and Weir 15 is located off Pethard Rd and with its friendly staff on site, who are available to offer insight to the lock itself and the history of the Murray River in the region.

An astounding 32,000 mega litres of water flows through the system daily, the weir pool itself stretches back 60km.

Robinswood Homestead is an iconic building, integral to the early settler history of the area.

The small historic house in the heart of Robinvale was the home of the Cuttle family, founders of the town.

Memorabilia of the Cuttle family, especially Robin Cuttle for whom the town is named, are displayed, together with some documents and photographs of the town twinning with Villers-Bretonneux.

The Homestead is in McLennan Drive and is a very well preserved building showcasing a home that was modern by the standards of the time.

The rendered concrete walls, roof tiles, and leadlight windows and doors are all original.

An immense mirror in the entranceway has only recently been returned to the Homestead by the family in Melbourne, after having been removed in the 1940’s.

Sports and Leisure
The Robinvale-Euston region is home to many great sporting clubs and organisations, as well as offering is a surprising number of places to enjoy family orientated recreational activities.

Take a leisurely swim in one of three well equipped and serviced outdoor pools during the summer months.

Take your friends for a round of golf at the Robinvale Golf Club, where the gum tree-lined green is something to behold.

Alternatively take a short drive over to Euston and enjoy a social afternoon of lawn bowls at the everpopular Euston Club Bowling Green.

During the winter months, the football season is in full swing, the local AFL community brings a new lease of life to the towns at the weekends.

If tennis is your sport of choice, dust the racquets off and hit some rallies down at the Robinvale Lawn Tennis Club.

Their annual Easter Tennis Tournament is always hotly contested and well supported by locals and visitors alike.

Fishing and Camping
The famous Murray cod, Australia’s largest freshwater fish is on the wishlist of most anglers when visiting this region.

Along with the cod, yellowbelly and silver perch are targeted by fisherman, and in season, so are Murray crays.

Non-native fish such as carp should be destroyed and not released back into the river alive.

As for camping, you would be hardpressed to find so many lovely accessible sites with access to the Murray as along the Robinvale and Euston part of the River.
