Welcome
Lake Tyers extends from Lake Tyers Beach to Mount Nowa Nowa. Tall eucalypt forests surround the northern shores of Lake Tyers, and a thin sand spit divides the lake from the ocean.
The park offers opportunities for low impact bush camping in a natural environment, with fishing in the lake and on the Ninety Mile Beach. Lake Tyers also offers a number of areas for picnics, beautiful bushwalks and forest drives.
Parks Victoria acknowledges the Aboriginal Traditional Owners of Victoria - including its parks and reserves. Through their cultural traditions, the Gunaikurnai identify the Lake Tyers Forest Park as their Traditional Country.
