The 26,000 hectare Barmah red gum forest will come alive with the rich sounds of whip-cracking, stockmen, dogs, cattle and horses.
With the first muster dating back to 1874, the event was originally the round-up of cattle in Barmah Forest, but the muster in recent years has evolved into an action-packed three-day weekend event set in and around the yards at the edge of the forest on either side of the beautiful Murray River.
The muster this year will have something for everybody, with trail rides, horse training demonstrations, camp oven tea, yarn spinning, whip cracking and much more.
For those looking for a challenge, events like team penning, two-handed cutting, whip cracking as well as timber cutting will be on offer during the weekend.
There will be catering and a licensed bar running, with a number of musical acts expected to play across the weekend.
Camping facilities will also be available on-site.
The muster will run across three days staring on Friday, April 29, 2022. For more information visit https://sites.google.com/site/barmahmuster/
