Lake Burley Griffin

Ipod friendly guides | Email to a friend | Print article

This man-made lake has become a real focal point within the city of Canberra since its construction in 1963. The damming of the Molonglo River created a huge lake with a circumference of some 35 kilometres, which has become the Capital’s playground. Joggers, walkers, cyclists and in-line skaters all cruise around the perimeter track, and if you’d like to explore the lake and its inlets further, you can hire a boat or canoe.
