Blue Lagoon



Built on the site of the Dead Volcano, Mount Gambier is surrounded by four ancient volcanic lakes, two of which have dried up over the past 30 or 40 years, and Blue Lake is one of the two remaining volcanic lakes.

The mystery of Blue Lake is that its color is changing. From the end of March to the beginning of November, Blue Lake is a unique dark blue. From the beginning of November to the next three years, it shows bright cobalt blue.

Choose from Adelaide, Blue Lake as the end point and then go back, because the scenery on the road is very beautiful, there are not many people and cars on the road, suitable for the depth of travel visitors.

Next, I will follow the time route, introduce different scenic spots, stay time.


Day one: Adelaide ~ Murray Bridge 

About an hour, about 75 kilometers, we stopped here on the first day of (Murray River), Australia's longest river running through the Morey Bridge, (Murray Bridge),.

It is recommended that you buy tickets online in advance, and you can cruise the (Captain Proud Paddle Boat Cruises). On Captain Prude's cruise ship in the next time. From the wharf of Murray Bridge, take a vintage-styled Ming-boat cruise on the beautiful Murray River (Murray River) for three hours and enjoy the natural scenery along the way. The tickets include a delicious lunch.

Captain Prude's cruise of the Ming ship


Murray Bridge is a very quiet and neat town, with few visitors on wharf except when it comes to boarding and disembarking. You may think this city, like many inland Australian cities, is unknown, but what you don't know is that it's rich in tourism, the perfect base for water sports, boating and fishing.

Enjoy a good lunch on the boat, get off the boat and find a hotel where you can relax, drive around the town, and if you like hiking, enjoy the main historic sites of the town along the railroad and riverside walkways, (Rail and River Walk). Do a short walk of about 5 kilometers.


The next day: Muriqiao ~ Curong National Park 

Today we will choose to spend the night in Curong National Park (Coorong National Park), of course, if you like the most primitive nature of leisure, you can choose to stay for a few more days.

Kurong national park


Kurong National Park, with a narrow terrain and a saline lagoon extending more than 100 kilometers, is a paradise for all kinds of birds, and is very suitable for four-drive enthusiasts, anglers, boating enthusiasts and bird-watchers, and enjoys a beautiful scenery. Beautiful scenery and well-designed four-drive driveway.

If you are a fan above, you will definitely be able to stay here for several days. Park can also participate in a number of activities, including land-based bird-watching, eco-cruise, sail and canoe, fishing, camping and hiking.

This is almost deserted, if you are ready to go to the field dormant, be sure to prepare food. On the day from Murray Bridge, you can buy a little more in small town, an Australian car camp, if you choose a cabin, most rooms have refrigerators and kitchens, and if it's not a log house, it's a tent or RV. The camp also has a public kitchen and refrigerator for food.


Day 3: Kurong National Park ~ Mount Gambie 

In fact, here should be said that the third paragraph is more appropriate. Because I didn't know you were in Curong National Park for a few days.

This section of the road is a lot of distance, nearly 300 kilometers. It's almost entirely along the seaside, and you can park and take pictures when you see beautiful attractions, even if you play for a while. It's not too fast to drive 300 kilometers a day. If you start at 10:00 in the morning, take a walk all the way. We should be able to get to Mount Gambier before dinner.

The article begins with the introduction of Mount Gambier, which is also our destination, and I suggest staying at least three nights. In addition to the beautiful Blue Lake, there are several very stunning views around Mount Gambier.


Cave Garden (Umpherston Sinkhole)

This is my favorite place, especially in the blooming season, flowers, happy shed, if not too many tourists, really want to rest in the flowers.

Ngoblatt Cave (Engelbrecht Cave)

This is a naturally formed cave with an underground lake for dangerous but stimulating cave diving.

Hell hole, (Hells Hole).

Diving in Hell Cave is a very exciting activity, but in order to be safe, all divers must obtain a diving permit from the camp management and can apply to the South Australian Forestry Department by e-mail. For most people who do not dive, you can also enjoy the splendor from the top platform.

Prison hole


Valley Lake (The Valley Lake) and the famous Blue Lake (The Blue Lake)

Are the two largest volcanic lakes in existence. Compared to Blue Lake, the valley lake is much less famous, but the lake scenery is also beautiful and tranquil, the water quality is clear, the surrounding construction has a walkway, can leisurely accompany the lake view walk.

All right, here's the trip. I'd better prepare for it for six to seven days. In Australia, the slow-moving, stop-and-go trip is becoming more and more popular. There is a small plan, but it is not very clear. When you see the good scenery, you stop to enjoy it, have a cup of coffee, listen to the sound of the waves, watch the birds flying around you, put a picnic mat in the wild or the car, and eat a few slices of bread. Or in the morning in the car camp for their own egg fried rice, are beautiful. Sometimes when we see the scenery, we take out a blanket, take a nap in the shade of a tree, enjoy the nature, is the real meaning of our trip.
