Twin Rivers The Twin Rivers region and surrounds, where the Nicholson and Tambo Rivers meet the Gippsland Lakes, incorporates the villages of Johnsonville, Nicholson, Swan Reach, Tambo Upper and Bumberrah. The area is a well-known ‘food bowl,’ where leafy vegetables thrive, trees are heavy with fruit, and farm gates abundant with sweet, tangy blueberries or cherries, stone fruits, apples and pears bursting with flavour. EAST GIPPSLAND / GIPPSLAND LAKES Unsurprisingly, Twin Rivers is also premium grape-growing territory, the region boasts a couple of popular wineries along the East Gippsland Drink Trail, whose cellar doors welcome you in for tastings, local cheese and antipasto. Held annually in July, the Twin Rivers Bream Classic puts the tiny townships of Nicholson, Swan Reach and Johnsonville on the map for the anglers with a much-loved catch and release fishing competition.
