Reviews Summary
Visitors praise the Berrima River Walk for its picturesque scenery, historical insights, and dog-friendly nature. While some note the river walk itself isn't always clearly defined, the overall experience is described as lovely and relaxing. The historical signs and the Berrima Old Bridge are particular highlights, offering a glimpse into the town's past.
"Fantastic easy walk along the river with signs explaining the period when Germans lived here in a ‘prison’ during the war. There was a whole community! Very interesting. The path was easy and mostly flat, some small area had to traverse some rocks. Gorgeous views along the river and a chance to see lots of wildlife including a red bellied black snake, yellow tailed cockatoos and a kookaburra"

"The so-called river walk is basically non-existent. There are people sitting and relaxing at the higher ground next to the river, but there is no obvious walking trail along the river from the car park."
