Bridge near Berri
Paul Rohal / Auscape International

Orange products and wine are big business in this Riverland town, which has the country's largest winery and is one of the major growing and manufacturing centres of the country's biggest orange-juice company. The Big Orange, on the north-west outskirts of town, makes this rather clear. The name 'Berri' has nothing to do with fruit, though. It comes from the Aboriginal 'Bery Bery', thought to mean 'bend in the river'. The town was established in 1911, the year after irrigation of the Murray began.
