Albert Park Lake
Lakeside Drive, Melbourne, AustraliaTel: 13 1963 (Local calls only) Parks Victoria Information Line • Web: Visit this site »
Located just three kilometres from the city center, Albert Park Lake is a 45 hectare expanse of water, set in parkland. Originally a swampy lagoon, drainage works last century deepened and reshaped the lake, making it into a popular venue for boating. The lake boasts a variety of bird life including Australia's famous black swans, as well as an impressive fountain in the center. It is ringed by a five kilometer running track and surrounded by 11 separate picnic areas featuring shelter sheds, seating and barbeques, as well as playgrounds and a lookout tower. The surrounding parkland is also home to a par 72 golf course and driving range, while in March Albert Park is the venue of the Qantas Australian Formula One Grand Prix. There is also a brand new aquatic centre, ovals and other sporting facilities.
