Perseverence is an area east of Crows Nest and Pechey, where day-trippers enjoy barbecue picnics by Perseverence Dam and groups find excellent camp and conference facilities at Perseverence Lodge.

Opposite Perseverence Lodge is a public park with barbecue facilities and playground equipment. At the Dam itself the picnic grounds is a lovely spot to stop to admire the tranquil waters and the dramatic drop from the roadway across the dam wall.

Guests of Perseverence Lodge can also enjoy a huge range of activities, including canoeing, kayaking, orienteering and tennis.
