A Town by the Lake

A FOCAL POINT IN NAGAMBIE... A statue of Black Caviar, one of Australia's greatest race horses on the shores of Lake Nagambie.

THE township of Nagambie is filled with life on the move. The region that surrounds the township is a hive of industry. Major wineries, horse racing and niche farming activities have a predominance in the gentle undulating countryside.

Wander down the main street and be greeted by friendly faces or dine in one of the several restaurants that give their city rivals a run for the money.

The Goulburn River takes a break at the man-made lake built over an area that was once several lagoons that provided a place for the Taungurung people to live.

Nagambie was once the main mail route between Melbourne and Shepparton when the highway followed the rail line.

The lake provides a major attraction bringing holiday makers to the region in the seasons and offers a multitude of activities for those who make the town their home.

Curios and country living dominate the quiet and tidy main boulevard with an abundance of heritage buildings that have been carefully preserved.
