This is a lovely place to take a walk and look at the wildlife. The walk is accessible around the dam. However the trails above it are great for the more adventuress. The Dam Inn has some very nice staff and the food is very nice too

I was surprised to see more baby coots today. Plus lovely to see the Grebe bob in and out of the water. They can stay under for ages
