The gateway to the Murraylands trails network was unveiled at the official Sturt Reserve Trail Head opening on Saturday, 8 May 2021.
The Rural City of Murray Bridge has installed an impressive industrial steel structure to mark the Trail Head, as part of the long term Sturt Reserve Master Plan.
The unique structure is reminiscent of the Murray Bridge road bridge arbours and was designed by Quentin Gore – who also created the Murray Cods Memorial artwork on the foreshore. The trail head serves as an important guide in a strategic location, for tourists and locals wanting to explore the great outdoors.
Six information panels on the Trail Head details the trails feeding out from Sturt Reserve including the Lavender Federation Trail, Murray Coorong Trail, Murray Bridge Discovery Trail, regional trails and local trails.
The trails network provides healthy, active and nature-based recreational opportunities for people wanting an authentic Murraylands experience. Sturt Reserve is our premier reserve and an ideal location for the Primary Trail Head in Murray Bridge.
