Ghow Swamp

About

The Ghow Swamp, formerly called the Kow Swamp, is a reservoir formed by the Torrumbarry Weir, a weir fed by off-stream sources, in the Mallee region in north-central Victoria, Australia. Originally a swamp and wetland, the weir was completed in 1923 and the reservoir provides water for irrigation as part of the Victorian Mid Murray Storages, managed by Goulburn–Murray Water.
