Established by its pioneers as the Riverland's garden town, Loxton, 255 kilometres east of Adelaide, has maintained its charm and character, as well as a strong community spirit.
Each Christmas the town lights up when more than 350 houses take in a brilliant Christmas lights display. Local guides offer bus transport around the town and people come from great distances to join in the fun.
Loxton Historical Village features an old school, a railway station and steam engine, and a working blacksmith's shop. This award-winning living history museum contains more than 30 buildings from the days of the Riverland's indomitable early settlers. Each building is equipped and furnished with items from the Village's eclectic collection of pioneering memorabilia. Loxton Historical Village springs to life on each of its regularly scheduled 'Alive Days' - not to be missed.
Ranked in the State's top ten, the Loxton Golf Course is open to visitors, as are numerous other sporting facilities. The Loxton Community Hotel offers golfing accommodation packages and following its recent renovation, there is now an excellent variety of dining options as well.
You'll also find several motels, farm stays and bed and breakfast properties in the area. The Loxton Riverfront Caravan Park offers water's edge camping and modern amenities.
