Riverina

Dry, brown, and flat, much of the Riverina's terrain doesn't look like a land suited for farming, yet heavy irrigation has turned the soil into fertile plains. Although not a prime sight-seeing destination, the Riverina attracts budget travelers seeking seasonal farm or fruit-picking labor in order to save up for more exciting destinations. Two rivers fertilize the system; the Murrumbidgee starts as a trickle in the Snowy Mountains and then widens into a major waterway that eventually joins the Murray.
