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.

- Sue TMelbourne, Australia3,310 contributionsMonument Hill in Albury has a 1.1km loop trail which takes about 23 minutes (steep in some places) or you can drive to the top and park. The monument area displays World War 1 and 11 memorials and features fantastic views over Albury and the walking track. There are lots of plaques with information to read. The monument is beautifully designed and presented with the area looked after immaculately. (toilets onsite) Take a walk or drive and enjoy this area.Written 7 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- maryan5456Sydney, Australia153 contributionsThe single staff member at the Tourist Information was very pleasant and knowledgeable. There was a fair amount of literature that she gave us to study for our cycling on the nearby rail trails. It’s located near the railway station in Albury and is very central.Written 25 May 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- AndyJohn74Sans Souci, Australia3,155 contributionsI’ve seen some new, modern, large childrens playgrounds before but this one is just stunning and it’s big. If you have small children and want them to burn some energy, take them here. There is every type of childrens apparatus in the one place and was a very worthwhile visit.Written 29 December 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

- sally b12 contributionsThe walk or cycle along the riverbank is so gorgeous you run the risk of getting sucked into the bush and never returning. I just couldn't turn back because I didn't want to miss what was around the next bend. Gorgeous sandy riverbanks, wetlands, birds, birds, birds, and an utterly stunning sunny winter's day. I love the Murray! Who knew?Written 23 June 2022This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.

- AliceAlbury, Australia25 contributionsWhat a fantastic walk and terrific destinations. A real jewel in the regional crown for the district of Albury.
Walk from the Monument or the Botanic Gardens along the trail , beside the Might Murray River and past the 'Bat Viewing Area' (you can't miss them as they are very noisy!), for 30 mins and you reach the Kremur St Boat ramp (has toilets) then another 30 mins along the beautiful trail to Horseshoe Lagoon. Another 30 mins and you are at the Wonga Wetlands (has toilets).
It is possible to park and join the trail at each of those points.
The path is wide and amazingly popular.Written 9 August 2020This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
