Lake Tooim ( Murray Downs Lake.) when full, covers an area of around 370 hectares of water.
Located just off the Moulamein road, 17 klms from Swan Hill. This lake was dry for many years during the 10 year drought and was cropped by the local farmer many times. Since the 2011 floods, Lake Tooim has been fairly full again.
Many and varied fish varieties have returned to the lake with the water and the prolific bird life makes for a bird watchers paradise. ( large wedge-tailed eagles are occasionally sighted.)
Although,Lake Tooim is a fairly shallow lake, canoeing, sailing and boating are possible. The water is also used to irrigate farm lands around Murray Downs.
Bring a picnic basket and blanket and fishing-rod and enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of this quiet little lake while searching for this cache.
