I have always been intrigued with the history of Lake Glenmaggie. The 1st settler to the area was Malcolm McFarlane in the 1850's. Other people followed him and Glenmaggie township was formed. In its peak Glenmaggie township had two hotels, three churches, a number of shops and a mechanical institute. By 1925 the whole township had been relocated because of the wall being built to make way for the Lake to ease water shortages. In the very dry years when the lake is very low, what was left over of the township can be still seen and people have driven over the bridges that are usually deep under water.
A popular spot for water skiing and recreational boating activities. There are 3 caravan parks spread out along the foreshore of the Lake and two boat ramps which can get very busy in the summer months.
This will take you to the township hall. Here you can read more detailed history of the area.
This is the 4th cache in this Lake series. The cache is a small to medium magnetic container with log only so B.Y.O pen.
