Axedale is a small town in Victoria, Australia. It is located on the McIvor Highway, in the City of Greater Bendigo, east of Bendigo. It was surveyed and proclaimed in 1861. At the 2011 census, Axedale had a population of 874. The town is nestled alongside the Campaspe River which feeds out of Lake Eppalock (about 20 minutes drive away). It has a golf course, tennis courts, a school, a pub and a convenience store/petrol station and a small community of artists. It lies between Heathcote and Bendigo. The Post Office opened on 21 April 1862. A Post Office nearby named Axe Creek Railway Station opened on 1 March 1889 when the railway arrived (named Longlea in 1904 and closing in 1989). The town is the current end point of the O'Keefe Rail Trail, although as of 2014 a pedestrian/cycle bridge has been completed, crossing the Campaspe River, and work is continuing on extending the rail trail from Axedale to Heathcote. As part of the Campaspe River crossing, an underpass for the Rail Trail was also built under the McIvor Highway. Golfers play at the Axedale Golf Club on Mitchell Street. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Axedale」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
