Information

The lake is accessed through the picnic area which is beside the camping area by a 300 metre walking track. It is a very easy walk. The public facilities were established in 1994,to commemorate the 150th anniversary of Ludwig Leichhardt and his team camping beside the lake, in 1844.

The area is well maintained, very clean and the picnic shelter and toilet block are in very good condition. The area is only 13 kilometres from the Leichhardt Highway on a good quality gravel road, that is also a major access to Expedition National Park. It would make a great base for visiting the national park which could be accessed during a day trip, road conditions permitting.
