Located at the southern end of the Overland Track, Lake St. Clair sits in a deep glacial valley. The area is home to big trees and alpine ecosystems alike.

We sampled some of the terrain on a loop walk to Shadow Lake. Our walk began at the lake level and climbed gradually upwards.



We came close to tree line and crossed a boggy before climbing a bit to the edge of the lake.




After a hot day of hiking we retired to our lakeside camp.

Waking up early gave us a sunrise treat, but we went back to bed after snapping this photo.


Another day of exploring and we were off for Southwest National Park…
