The Great River Road is a proper driver’s and rider’s road, a wonderfully scenic driving route tracing the early course of the mighty Murray River. Flanked by national and state parks, and lake and river reserves, the route is one of the best roads for drivers and riders, offering plenty of slow-in, fast-out corners, winding bends, tight curves, and smooth, flat straights.
