Yanga Lake sits within Yanga National Park near Balranald in the Riverina region of New South Wales, nestled within the ecologically rich Lowbidgee floodplain along the Murrumbidgee River corridor. This expansive lake is a significant drawcard for both locals and visitors, offering a diverse range of recreational opportunities including fishing, water skiing, canoeing, and world-class bird watching. The surrounding landscape is dominated by iconic river red gum forests and lignum floodways, creating a wetland environment of national ecological importance. The lake and its surrounds support an extraordinary diversity of wildlife, and fishing here comes with the added reward of experiencing one of eastern Australia's most significant waterbird habitats, where over 150 bird species have been recorded.
