The Experience

Before You Go

Charge and check the E‑bike

Confirm battery level before you leave and mention height to the operator so they can set appropriate assistance levels.

Bring a refillable water bottle

There are no refill stations on the route; a 1–1.5L bottle keeps you comfortable in warm weather.

Carry ID for tasting

You must be of legal drinking age to take part in the complimentary wine tasting at St. Anne’s.

Pre-order a platter if you want to picnic

Cellar door platters require advance notice and sell out on busy days—ask your guide to arrange one.

Local Knowledge

Hidden Gems

  • Early-morning birdwatching at Horseshoe Lagoon for pelicans and waterfowl
  • The quieter lawns behind St. Anne’s for late-afternoon light and fewer crowds

Wildlife

  • Australian pelican
  • Black swan

Conservation Note

Stick to marked paths and pack out rubbish—the Murray’s floodplain ecosystems are sensitive. E‑biking reduces local emissions but respect winery grounds and wildlife viewing distances.

Echuca grew into a major 19th‑century river port for the Murray‑Darling trade; paddle steamers still operate as heritage vessels along the wharf.

What to Bring

Refillable water bottleEssential

Staying hydrated is essential on the open river paths and during the tasting stop.

Sunscreen and hatEssential

The river exposes you to sun; protection matters even on short rides.

Closed-toe walking shoesEssential

Comfortable shoes make mounting, dismounting and walking around the winery easier.

Light rain shell

A compact shell keeps you dry if late-afternoon showers roll in.
