Imagine arriving at a hidden lake before the world wakes up… 🌿
Tucked away in the Great Otway National Park, Lake Elizabeth is a secluded glacial lake created by a landslide in 1952 : a peaceful hidden gem where big bus tours don’t go.
On our exclusive small-group dawn visit, follow a short fern-lined boardwalk beneath towering tree ferns to the water’s edge. In the soft morning mist, the lake can become perfectly mirror-still… and if you’re lucky, you may spot a platypus quietly gliding across the surface, leaving only gentle ripples behind. 🦆
It’s a rare, personal wildlife encounter and one of the most peaceful ways to experience the Great Ocean Road region : far from the crowds and completely different from the usual rainforest stops.
