Attractions & Activities

Located on the shores of Lake Dunstan, Cromwell has a history that stretches back to the gold rush days of the 1800s. Today, Cromwell’s major industry is fruit growing. In the 1980s part of Cromwell was flooded for the purpose of the then new Clyde Dam power station project. The best of the town’s historic buildings were relocated to recreate the ‘Old Cromwell Town’.
