A beautiful spot for a walk, lots a great views to be had of the local bird life and historic buildings. There is a walking track right around the lake, which you can also ride a bike along to. Lots of places to stop and take in the views and capture some great moments. There are several playground around the lake with the main one on the west side near the Botanical Gardens. There are also old tram rides and paddle boat rides at certain time of the year. Small boats and fishing are also allowed on the lake. A great place to visit for the day.

A really beautiful walk around Lake Wendouree. Plenty of wildlife, viewpoints and a few points of interest around the lake. The walk itself is not far at all and the pathways are quite clear and suitable for pushchairs / wheelchairs. Dogs are allowed around the lake (on-leash) and there's a few cafes / restaurants for a coffee and snacks.

Amazing lake which is spread over a vast expanse. It has got walking/ running trail along its edge which provides good opportunity for people run, walk, cycle at their leisure. The lake itself is pretty clean and has got lots of birds and ducks etc. Some people had fishing rods with them as well, not sure if there are any fishes on offer though. Overall a good place to visit if you are in the area.

Fantastic walk around the lake. Takes about 90 minutes ( 6kms) to walk the circuit at an enjoyable rate, or maybe quicker it's up to you. Stop off for coffee or lunch at The Boathouse, or Piper on the Lake, situated either end of the lake.

Always a lovely spot, 6km running/walking/bike track around the lake, getting lights put in which will be great for safety at dusk and early mornings. Lots of bird life, great for kayaking, SUP or windsurfing and fishing. Lots of playgrounds and toilets around every side of the lake.

A visit to Ballarat is not complete without a walk along the lovely Lake Wendouree. The sunsets are spectacular here. It’s very serene and calm, the perfect respite from the stresses of everyday life.

Really nice spot. We don't have lakes where we live and so found this to be really nice, the style of buildings in this area set a really lovely scene when looking out across the lake and bird life was abundant. We stopped to see at a few different points around the lake, the adventure playground, and some of the boat houses were great. This is also a great spot to go for a jog or just stroll along the walking tracks.

One of the best place to visit, while in Ballarat , I felt it a great place to relax, lake itself looks great, good path away to walk and greenery grass to sit, and playground made specially of woods, that are designed to reflect little bit of ballarat itself. Enjoyed the scooter ride it was fun. Enjoyed our visit to Ballarat. Enjoyed the swans company, There were around over 100 black swans, fearless swan which are familiar with people,

There's a wonderful walking track that circles this lake (from memory, around 7km) and as if the views across the lake aren't enough, there are some simply lovely botanic gardens, the Robert Clark Conservatory and a few other surprises. I love this track. And if you have the right day for it, the lake is gorgeous at dusk.

Beautiful and can easily spend a few hours with the kids in the playground and go across to the Botanical garden.

Amazing lake with a sunny day. Took nearly an hour if you walk around the whole lake. You can kayak, canoe and swim there too. My peaceful place to be.

Beautiful place, do not swim here. I did and honestly thought why the heck not no one can stop me. Well here is the thing the over growth, the high mental not worth it. As a female you get what I'm saying ahaha Beautiful place too relax, walk, play. Great spot for sunset and pickinic dates!

Incredible lakeside walk with stunning views of the lake, lots of shade and great bird life to watch. Adjacent to the botanical gardens which are also nice. There are good amounts of toilets, cafes and seating along the western shore.

Love going to this place. I go here atleast once a month to walk around the lake. Love the bird life there. Friendly people. Great atmosphere. Awesome picnic area. Great asset to the area. Awesome pictures you can take there. Need more around country Victoria. I remember the days when there was no water in the lake.

Stunning place for the cenery and beautiful walks. Plenty to do and see a must for everyone. Great restaurants and pubs on the lake

The place where you can get connected with the nature sounds and enjoy with your love ones. I really like this lake. The wildlife and surrounding is fantastic. And yeah, Don't Forget the Dawn and Sunset its amazing.

In the words of a famous man, "How's the serenity! So much serenity!" Beautiful place!

The walking track is awesome and with the all the swan families there in September, it's very pretty

Nice lake with beautiful walking track. Beautiful botanical garden at one side of lake. Nice place for morning and evening walk.
