Lake George Scott

About

Lake George Scott, also called Scott Pond, is a small lake situated on the Tekapo River approximately 3 kilometres downstream of Lake Tekapo, New Zealand. It is a man-made lake formed to divert water from the river into the Tekapo hydro electric canal. The Lake is named after the late George Scott, a former superintendent of the nearby Tekapo A Power Station. The Department of Conservation maintains a walkway to the lake from the Lake Tekapo Township.
