Barmah Redux

I last visited the Barmah Nationa Park in June 2011 (see post here) when most of the park was closed due to recent winter flooding. This time in much warmer conditions I was able to go much deeper into the park and follow the Murray River from Barmah along the Victorian side of the river past Mathoura and Picinic Pont and deep into the park upstream towards Tocumwal. As noted in the 2011 post this is the largest river red gum (Eucalyptus camaldulensis) sanctuary in Australia. This is part of the Barmah Forest. The forest has 112 km of Murray River frontage and when it floods the water flows out into the forest and fills lake Barmah, Moira and others in the Barmah National Park.
