Glenmaggie - Lake Glenmaggie
Lake Glenmaggie is an annual storage which provides water for farmers throughout the Macalister Irrigation District. This means that the lake fills and empties most years. If rainfall has been high leading in to summer, good swimming may extend through the warmer months.
Lake Glenmaggie is popular for boating, fishing, swimming and picnics. Camping is available at the privately operated Lake Glenmaggie Caravan Park. See the Lake Glenmaggie boating rules. Boating restrictions at Glenmaggie will change with water levels.
