A classic story is coming to life along the Murray River, with Wonderland on the Murray now running across Echuca Moama as a large-scale Alice in Wonderland sand sculpture trail.
Open until 9 March 2026, the free event transforms public spaces throughout the twin towns into a family-friendly adventure, featuring handcrafted sand installations created by Sandstorm Events.
The trail begins at the historic Port of Echuca, where visitors follow Alice as she tumbles down the rabbit hole and enters a world of wonder. From there, the journey continues through the Port precinct and Aquatic Reserve, with eight sculptures depicting iconic characters and scenes from the beloved story.
Crossing the Murray River into Moama, the trail concludes at Kerrabee Reserve, where Alice’s Tea Party is staged inside the Soundshell as the final stop of the experience.
Along the route, visitors encounter familiar moments including the Caterpillar and Cheshire Cat, Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum, the White Rabbit racing to his tea party, the Queen of Hearts with her card soldiers, and Alice emerging from the rabbit hole in Moama.
Campaspe Shire Mayor Cr Daniel Mackrell says the trail is already shaping up as a standout summer attraction.
“With no other town in Australia offering a sand sculpture trail of this kind during the summer months, Wonderland on the Murray is set to become a must-see summer highlight, creating ‘wow’ moments for people of all ages.”
