About Melaka River Walk

The Melaka River runs through the middle of the heritage city. A large rejuvenation project added a tidal barrage, dredging and concrete banks with walkways, so you can now follow the river on foot past old warehouses, shophouses with painted murals, small bridges and the traditional Malay houses of Kampung Morten.

This is a city walk rather than wild nature, but it is the easiest green-and-blue stroll in the old town. There is little shade, so go early in the morning or around sunset. If you want to see the same route from the water, the Melaka River Cruise boards at Jeti Pengkalan Rama from 2 November 2026 while works are carried out.
