Moorna Creek Loop ✅
A great little overnight canoe loop that I recently completed. Starting at the boat ramp near Lock 9 Lodge and had short upstream paddle to the junction of Mullaroo and Wallpolla Creek. Stayed left and made my way along Mullaroo, enjoying the birdlife and the acient red gums before returning back onto Wallpolla Creek for a few kilometres.
Not long after, I reached a narrow channel known as Moorna Creek. This section was tight and technical with lots of navigating, ducking, and pulling myself under and through fallen trees and debris, luckily with only one portage. Even passed under a few historic bridges before eventually returning back to the Murray River, around 15 km from where I started.
From there, I paddled downstream until I found a good spot to camp for the night—25 km done for day one.
The next morning was a cruisy 10.5 km paddle back. I took it slow, enjoying the final stretch before returning to the ute where it all began.
Definitely recommend this one if you’re chasing a remote overnight adventure. 👌
