Canoe Trees and the Marne River
Take a stroll along the river, looking for canoe trees. First Nations people of the lower Murray River formerly made large canoes from the bark of Red Gum trees. They used canoes to transport goods and move long distances along the river system.
The Marne River in southeast South Australia starts below Eden Valley at an elevation of 366m and ends at an elevation of 5.06m flowing into the River Murray.
The Marne River drops around 361m over its 69.5km length.

History of Eden Valley
The land of the Ngadjuri People, Traditional Owners of the Eden Valley region.
South Australia’s beautiful Eden Valley, known as the garden of grapes and gums, is one of Australia’s premier cool climate wine regions characterised by its rugged beauty and varied topography.
Eden Valley was named by the surveyors of the area after they found the word "Eden" carved into a tree. The beautiful rolling hills of the region create a natural diversity in mesoclimate determined by altitude, aspect and slope, which also naturally impacts the soil type. It is therefore critical to match the correct grape variety and site. Overall, the region is characterised by cooler conditions than its famous neighbour, the Barossa Valley, and as such the final stages of ripening and harvesting take place in cooler temperatures.
Eden Valley wines are distinctive in their character, displaying wonderful aromatics, elegance, complexity and finesse.
Eden Valley shares a proud German heritage with it's neighbour the Barossa Valley, collectively known as the Barossa region. English and German immigrants settled here in the early to mid-19th century, establishing the township in the 1860s.
With a wine-making history dating back to 1847, Eden Valley is home to some of the world’s oldest Shiraz and Riesling vineyards.
We are a family of 5 with 3 children who love to explore and learn about the history of the places we visit. So, we hope you enjoy this little snippet!

One of the best camping experiences we’ve had. The location has so much to offer, and watching the sunset up close was absolutely beautiful. The complimentary firewood was a lovely touch, and the peaceful, quiet environment made the stay even more enjoyable. We had a wonderful time and would definitely come back.

Camping here was so wonderful it was a perfect getaway, not too far from the city with a beautiful drive there. Sam and Chris were fantastic, and we got to meet and cuddle camels, cows, chickens, llamas, guinea pigs and the three most beautiful dogs amongst other animals! I wasn’t expecting such a thoughtful and generous experience for just a one night trip but it was truly so well worth it. Not to mention the lovely gift basket they gave us on arrival (the cookies were amazing!) Thank you so so much for such a lovely trip! Definitely worth a visit!!

Great place to stay for a overnight stay or several days while exploring the history of this area, so much to see and explore and the Royal Victoria Hotel is amazing restoration of a 1879 hotel in all it’s glory. Facilities are all clean and well kept. A big thumbs up to the dedicated team running Beltana township. We will be back

Great little spot, and close enough to town to make it an easy getaway. Appreciated the hospitality and the clean, useful amenities. The kids had a heap of fun running around and playing, jumping on the trampoline and generally getting dirty and away from screens. Was great to sneak in a tasting at the distillery too – will definitely be back.

We absolutely loved our stay at Sunset Rocks Farmstay. We stayed in the Niagara Falls site which was just beautiful. The kids had a blast in the cubby, and the kayak on the creek. The adults loved a walk around the property, sitting at our campsite taking in the beautiful surrounds and the sound of the running creek. The site was big enough for our 23 foot van, which was reasonably easy to manoeuvre into position and the facilities were good. Quite a steep decline when approaching the bridge, so a 4WD is required if towing a decent sized rig. Thanks Steve for sharing your property with us!
