Googong Foreshores
Googong Foreshores is located 10kms south of Queanbeyan and the London Bridge
area is a further 16kms south towards Burra. The dam wall is 62metres high
and the spillway can be viewed from a car park at the northern end. It is the
water catchment area for Canberra and Queanbeyan, a recreation area for public
use and wildlife refuge.
London Bridge Arch is an interesting limestone formation, formed when water
flowing along Burra Creek leaked through cracks in the limestone. These
cracks were enlarged as the limestone was dissolved and worn away, forming
caves and eventually the London Bridge Arch.
Googong foreshore area is ideal for sightseeing, fishing, bushwalking,
picnicking, canoeing and sailing.
Swimming is restricted to downstream of the weir wall only near picnic areas
and camping is not permitted.
