Pioneer Settlement

The Pioneer Settlement is a captivating testament to Australia's pioneering past, where visitors can immerse themselves in the sights, sounds, and stories of early rural life. The settlement features various exhibits and demonstrations, including humble cottages of settlers, a general store, and a blacksmith's workshop. Visitors can take a ride on a horse-drawn carriage or a restored 1920s Dodge, and enjoy a leisurely cruise along the Murray River aboard the historic PS Pyap. The settlement also offers a unique setting for events and functions, and is staffed by friendly and knowledgeable volunteers. At night, the settlement takes on a magical ambiance with laser light spectaculars, including the Heartbeat of the Murray and Legends of the Mallee shows. The settlement is mostly accessible, with bitumen pathways and some accessible buildings, making it a great place to visit for families
