Lake Tyrrell Viewing Platform

The Lake Tyrrell Viewing Platform, located seven kilometers north of Sea Lake, offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience Victoria's largest salt lake. The platform provides panoramic views of the expansive salt crust, which, during winter, transforms into a shallow lake reflecting the sky, creating a mirror-like effect. The surrounding area is home to diverse wildlife, including Mallee reptiles, kangaroos, emus, and white-faced chats. The platform also serves as a prime location for stargazing, with the clear, dark skies offering exceptional views of the southern hemisphere's constellations. Visitors are encouraged to use designated paths and avoid driving on the lake bed to preserve the fragile environment.
