Nangiloc is primarily an agricultural settlement, on the south (left) bank of the Murray River, about 50km south east of Mildura. The Murray River, or River Murray, is Australias second-longest river in its own right (the longest being its tributary the Darling). ...
Irrigation from the Murray and rich local soil has allowed for diverse crops. The area has become increasingly well known for its gourmet wines and fresh fruit industries. Also many niche agricultural goods are produced in this area. Crops like avocado, pistachio & almonds are well established. Wine is an alcoholic beverage produced by the fermentation of the juice of fruits, usually grapes. ...
The area is also well known as a camping destination. There are many bush reserves along the banks of the Murray river that showcase the Mallee bush and it's subtle beauty.
The tavern is, in effect, the social and trading centre of the small, border-hugging Sunraysia town of Nangiloc in the far north-west corner of the state.
The southern bank stretch of the Murray River between Nangiloc and Colignan is a favoured haunt of boaties, picnickers, campers and anglers.
Nangiloc is 30km south-east of the major mallee centre of Red Cliffs which boasts Big Lizzie - an incredible, 45-tonne steel workhorse which cleared 1500ha of surrounding land.
