 The loop is made out of three tracks (Reservoir Track, Arrunga Bardo Walk and Heritage Path). Very well signposted and maintained tracks. There are four creek crossings which may be impassable after rain.

This loop can be done in either direction:

  • Anticlockwise - start from the Visitor Hub along Arrunga Bardo Garden and follow the track. You should see the lake to your left at all time.
  • Clockwise - start from the Visitor Hub along the Heritage Path will get you to the Dam Wall Lookout then follow the track to the end. The lake should be on your right.

Designated swimming area, boat hire, children’s playground.

There are toilets by the carpark next to the playground.

There are 3 carparks.
