At Creswick Regional Park, visitors can encounter wildlife in diverse natural environments, from wetlands and lakes to plantation hills and flat grasslands. Explore a reforested landscape of native bushland and see fascinating remains from mining days.
Walkers can follow easy trails that wind around the gentle hills or set off on an adventure through Victoria's goldfields country. See the park in a whole new way by cycling and exploring the many open roads and signposted shared tracks in the park. Creswick comes alive with wildflowers in spring, but this beautiful park draws nature-lovers in all year round.
Popular with visitors and wildlife, St Georges Lake was once a mining dam but is now a summer base for water activities and idyllic picnics. Barbecue facilities and toilets are available. The gently undulating trail around the lake is a pleasant, easy walk and a great opportunity for birdwatching.
The Slaty Creek Campgrounds provide three separate secluded camping areas with fireplaces and accessible toilets are available at Slaty Creek No. 1. You might catch sight of koalas and wallabies, as well as the abundant birdlife that live in the canopies.
