As summer sizzles in Albury Wodonga, finding ways to stay cool is a must. Luckily our region is packed with options to keep you refreshed, entertained and relaxed.
From natural waterways to family friendly swimming, grab your sunscreen and swimmers because we have you covered on how to enjoy summer while staying cool.
Water Works Albury
Just a 5 minute drive from Albury’s CBD, on the Riverina Hwy, turn right on Waterworks Road, follow along and you’ll find a charming old wooden bridge crossing the Murray at Water Works bend.
Roll out your towel and relax under one of the shady river gums or try your luck hooking one of the local freshwater specialties, Murray Cod, Rainbow Trout, Redfin and Golden Perch.
Kremur Street
Take a drive down to the end of Kremur Street Albury, and apart from the fabulous Yindyamarra Sculpture Trail, you’ll find a swim spot on the Murray, tucked away, just a short distance downstream from the boat ramp.
Take care here, access is suited only for the able bodied and the current can be fast.
This little gem is for competent swimmers only.
Take a dip in Lake Hume
Lake Hume is the perfect place for a refreshing swim.
Pack a picnic, umbrella, and your favourite inflatable, along with our guide for the perfect picnic spots for hours of fun.
Top off the perfect day at Lake Hume with front-row seats to nature’s masterpiece.
Epic sunsets and breathtaking views.
Dip your dog
Don’t forget your fur babies this summer!
There are loads of access spots to Lake Hume where your best friend can chase a stick into the water all day long.
Try Kookaburra Point at Ebden where there’s lots of shady car parks and a handy little general store.

Noreuil Park
The stately river gums provide welcome shade to manicured lawns with plenty of space to relax and unwind with family and friends at our Murray River Precinct. There’s ample picnic tables, seating and barbeques for a bring-your-own riverside picnic, or drop in to the River Deck Cafe for some award-winning riverside food with friendly service.
Why not plan a canoe trip and experience its tranquil beauty with Canoe the Murray River or Murray River Canoe Hire.

Splash around at local pools
For a safe, fun spot for kids to cool off, Albury Wodonga pools are a fantastic option.
Bring the family and enjoy a picnic under the trees, or food and drinks from the kiosk, lifeguard supervision and covered play areas. Fun for all the family with the water slide at Albury Swim Centre, kiddie pool at Lavington Swim Centre and the water park at Waves Wodonga
