LAKE CHARLEGRARK

Lake Charlegrark
Lake Charlegrark is just 30 minutes drive south of Kaniva on the Kaniva-Edenhope Rd. It is a natural haven set among red gums and rolling farmland, covering over 40 hectares. It is popular for fishing, skiing, boating, kayaking, swimming, and picnics. Families and day visitors can enjoy the foreshore, shaded areas, BBQs, and wide open spaces to relax.

Lake Charlegrark Country Music Marathon
Each February the lake hosts one of the region’s biggest events - the Lake Charlegrark Country Music Marathon. This weekend festival draws thousands with live country music, markets, food stalls, and family-friendly fun. Early bird ticket passes are recommended.
