Lake Learmonth
The lake beside Learmonth township, ringed by volcanic hills, with picnic areas, playgrounds and lakeside walking on its eastern and northern shores.
Lake Learmonth sits directly beside the township that shares its name, with volcanic hills rising on its northern, western and southern sides. The eastern and northern shores closest to town hold the main visitor areas, including picnic spots, children's playgrounds and nature walks.
The lake has long been used for fishing, boating and water sports, but like many lakes on the central Victorian plains its water level varies significantly with the seasons. Check current conditions locally before planning any water-based activity.
