Neds Corner

Conserving the Mighty Murray

Ned's Corner stretches along the River Murray west of Mildura. Ned's was used largely for sheep and cattle grazing since the 1850s until the Trust for Nature purchased the property. With support from the National Reserve System Programme, private donors and the local community, Ned's Corner Station is now the largest privately-owned reserve in Victoria.
