Overview
Bookmark

Fringed by ancient River Red Gums and fed by the Wimmera River, this huge lake is shared by parrots, pelicans, sea eagles, anglers and water sports enthusiasts alike. The Wimmera River originates on the Great Dividing Range near Beaufort and ends in a series of "terminal lakes", including Lake Hindmarsh, Lake Albacutya and finally, the Wyperfeld flood plains.

Flora & Fauna - Lake Hindmarsh is a valuable haven for waterbirds, being home to breeding colonies of pelicans and Pied Cormorants. The dry woodlands host a variety of other birds including significant species such as the Regent Parrot, Bush Thick-knee and Gilbert's Whistler.

  • Lake Hindmarsh is fringed by old deep-rooted River Red Gums which, further from the lake edge, merge into woodlands of Black Box, Yellow Gum and Slender Cypress-pine. Lake Hindmarsh also contains some vulnerable plant species including Salt Paperbark, Three-nerve Wattle, Coast Bitter-bush, Button Rush, Red Bird's-foot Trefoil and Six-point Arrowgrass.
