Lake Inverell Reserve
Lake Inverell Drive, Inverell, New South Wales 2360
Lake Inverell was formed in 1938 when the dam wall across the Macintyre River just upstream of Inverell was completed to supply water for Inverell. Lake Inverell Reserve is now a peaceful aquatic sanctuary close to town. The area is home to a large variety of birds, platypus, kangaroos, wallabies and waterbirds, and is a popular area for barbecues, walking, bird watching, kayaking, canoeing and fishing. Dogs are permitted on a lead within the Lake Inverell reserve area. There are two walking tracks provided. Lake Inverell Walk is a three-kilometre return trip, easy grade walk. Keen walkers can continue on the Barayamal Walk, which passes through Barayamal National Park, and is a medium grade six-kilometre return trip walk. Dogs are not permitted in Barayamal National Park.
