Gum Bend Lake will be reopening for the season this Saturday 5 October after major improvements! ☀️
Over the winter months, Lachlan Shire Council transformed the foreshore by removing the old tyre bank and bringing in fresh sand to create a beach-like experience. The project jointly funded by the NSW Government`s Regional Tourism Activation Fund and Lachlan Shire Council enhances the appeal of the lake precinct.
Other works undertaken by Lachlan Shire Council over the past 5 years:
- Construction of concrete walking and cycling paths around the lake
- New toilet and amenity buildings
- Upgrade of playground equipment
- Construction of a large shade structure with covered BBQ and picnic areas
Gum Bend Lake is the perfect spot for water skiing, camping, picnicking, bird watching, and fishing by the Lachlan River.
