Descripción

Niagara Dam is furnished with two short contiguous loop walk trails; the Breakaway Walk and the Round the Dam Walk. A good list of birds has been recorded here including Mulga Parrot, Spiny-cheeked Honeyeater and Chestnut-rumped Thornbill. Western Quail-thrush is a reasonable chance here.

From WA Tourism (see link below): "Named after the once-booming town of Niagara, the dam was built in 1898, during the gold rush, to provide water for the railway from Kalgoorlie to Menzies. However, after its arduous construction which involved transporting cement from Coolgardie via camel train, the dam was deemed obsolete, as plentiful groundwater had been discovered in nearby Kookynie".
