Railway Dam
Overview
This historic dam is a great spot to have a picnic and enjoy nature. RV camping is permitted and there are two gas fired barbeques and picnic tables. An information bay describes the early history of the railway network, and the post-war European immigrants who have made a great contribution to the district. There are two easy walk trails around the dams.
