Just a short drive from Nagambie, Murchison is known as the "River Bank Garden Town" and is full of character and charm. Located on the banks of the Goulburn River, the serenity and friendliness is a pleasure to experience.

 

Gold was discovered in the area in 1853 and the township, named after Captain John Murchison, was established in 1854. From the old township and cemetery you get a real understanding of life during the gold rush.
