Pykes Creek Reservoir - Melbourne Victoria
Driving to Pykes Creek Reservoir - Melbourne Victoria on 21.5.2018
It was a very windy ,cold and rainy Day but I decided to go for a drive after work. It was quiet a challenge to get to this place driving from Bacchus Marsh because the weather was bad and i didnt even follow any navigation or maps .
I kind of knew its somewhere there. Finally arrived and I was impressed with its size but believe its little short of water being depleted by recent droghts in Victoria.
Pykes Creek Reservoir is also a great place for boating,fishing & kayaking and next time i will film more in better weather.
I hope you enjoyed it and Please Subscribe to my channel Thankyou :)
Pykes Creek Reservoir ( Pykes Creek Dam )- Melbourne Victoria is situated about 70 km from Melbourne city center and Ballan is not far from there. Little town of Myrniong also is very nice and I hope to drop in the Plough Restaurant.
