Information

'Tree of Knowledge'– located in the John Hamilton Lions Memorial Park is a living chart with markers recording flood levels, right up to the extraordinary 1956 flood. It sits on the riverfront opposite the Loxton Caravan Park and is one of the few river red gums to survive severe flooding since the all time high flood of 1956.
