The town of Kerang is located 25 kilometres inland from the Murray River, between the historic Murray River border towns of Swan Hill and Echuca. Kerang is situated within an irrigation district which produces lucerne, grain and vegetable crops.

Attractions in Kerang include the memorial clock tower in the junction of Wellington and Victoria Streets, the Kerang Historical Museum which features relics of local history such as farm machinery and cars, and the Lester Smith Lookout Tower where the Visitor Information Centre is based and where visitors can enjoy good views of the surrounding area. The Loddon River runs through Kerang, offering good fishing opportunities.

North-west of town, along the Murray Valley Highway, are the Kerang Wetlands which feature over 50 lakes, swamps and lagoons stretching from Lake Boga in the north and south to Kerang. These wetlands are home to thousands of colourful and graceful water birds. Several of the larger lakes, including Kangaroo Lake and Lake Charm, are popular with visitors for watersports, boating and fishing. Gorton Drive, which runs along the western shore of Kangaroo Lake, is lined with jacaranda trees and citrus orchards and was named after former Australian Prime Minister Sir John Gorton who was born in the area. The Brown Brothers winemakers established a vineyard next to Kangaroo Lake in the 1960s, and they produce a number of exotic wines from their warm climate grape plantings.

Leaghur State Park Located 25 kms south-west of Kerang, the park consists of open woodlands and seasonal wetlands featuring majestic river red gums and water birds
