Lake Hume

description Lake Hume Overview

Lake Hume is an artificial reservoir situated on the Murray River along the border of Victoria and New South Wales in Australia. The lake was formed by the construction of the Hume Dam, which was completed in its enlarged state in 1936 to regulate water flow for downstream irrigation. Fed by the Murray and Mitta Mitta rivers, the reservoir is a major component of the Murray-Darling Basin's water management infrastructure. It also supports local recreation and tourism activities.
