Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

Junction Park is the spot where you can go FOR FREE to see the point where Australia's two most legendary rivers The Murray & The Darling meet.
It's easy viewing either from ground level at the rivers edge or from the easy to climb observation tower.
No need for binoculars as the two river flows are (for want of a better phrase) different colours so you can see the slightly more muddy Darling alongside the Murray.
Junction Park is a lovely spot obviously well maintained by the council. Grassy and green plenty of plants and trees, there is seating too. Plenty of parking spots and although I'm not sure if there are designated caravan and camper spots there were some vans parked up when we visited so obviously the parking is easy to manoeuvre a van around.
I would highly recommend this simple pleasure.

We visited late afternoon on Easter Monday and had the place to ourselves. Lovely and green and a great spot to go for a shory walk. The viewing tower is easy to climb and gives you great views of the water.

park is very nice and well maintained, great imaginative gardens. Confluence of Murray and Darling rivers disappointing. I would recommend doing this on a sunny day where apparently the colours of where the rivers merge can be unusual. This was not the case for us on a cloudy day.

This is a lovely spot, where the Darling and Murray Rivers meet. You can climb the observation tower for a nice view of the confluence of the two rivers. If you are in the area, stop by. But it is not worth going out of your way to see.

Not as impressive as was expecting. There is a small tower that you climb (probably about 50 steps) to view the confluence of the two rivers – The Murray and Darling. Not really much to see and probably would be more impressive from a lot higher up such as from a drone. There was a small walk from the park however it was under water due to the high level of the river. Picnic tables and toilet facilities available.

Well kept park where you can view the junction of the Murray and Darling rivers. There is a viewing platform with many steps so you can view this special spot.

The gardens were well laid out and the area peacefull and pleasant with good facilities. The park overlooks the confluence of the Murrya and Darling Rivers and is a place that should be visited tpo see the rivers rather than the park itself

Visited on Friday 13th March. This is a well maintained park and the location where the Darling River joins with the Murray River.

Interesting lcoation as it is where the Murray and the Darling rivers meet. Facilities are okay, though toilets could do with a clean. Good place for a swim though.
