{{Use Australian English|date=April 2018}}{{Use dmy dates|date=April 2018}}This is a table of river distances of various locations along the Murray River upstream from Echuca, Victoria and Mannum, South Australia, arguably the two most important river ports in the steamboat era. Negative values indicate distances downstream. Many of the places listed are of historic interest only. Note that river distances are by their nature highly imprecise, will always be greater than straight line distances, and frequently greater than road distances. | Place | Side of river | River distance
