Hume Dam, completed in 1936, stands as a monumental feat of engineering, once the largest in the Southern Hemisphere. It regulates the River Murray's flow, supplying water for irrigation, domestic use, and hydroelectric power across three states. Visitors can enjoy activities like boating, fishing, and camping along Lake Hume's 400 km of foreshores. The dam features a 318-meter-long concrete spillway and a 51-meter-high wall, offering panoramic views from the crest road and viewing platforms. The site also provides picnic areas, BBQ facilities, and a visitor center for a comprehensive experience.
