Lake Elizabeth Campsite

Lake Elizabeth Campground sits within Great Otway National Park, tucked among tall eucalyptus trees beside the Barwon River East Branch.

The final approach follows a gravel road through dense ferns and forest, with no phone reception beyond the nearby town of Forrest. Lake Elizabeth itself is a short one-kilometre walk from camp.

The campground offers 20 unpowered, tent-only sites accommodating up to six people each. There is no direct vehicle access; a 15-minute unloading bay and a separate carpark are located a short walk away. Facilities include non-flush toilets and barbecues.

Dogs are permitted on lead. Wildlife is a highlight — Satin Bowerbirds, Superb Fairy-wrens, Eastern Yellow Robins, and the elusive platypus are all regularly spotted.

The Forrest Mountain Bike Trailhead is located at the nearby day-visitor carpark, and the Lake Elizabeth Circuit Walk begins close to camp.
