Lakewood Nature Reserve

Lakewood Nature Reserve is a hidden gem in suburban Melbourne. The reserve is centered around a small lake and wetland area, providing a quiet sanctuary for a variety of waterbirds and other wildlife. A network of unsealed paths and boardwalks allows visitors to take a short, peaceful walk around the lake. The reserve has been the focus of community revegetation efforts, enhancing its habitat value. Facilities are minimal, focusing on passive recreation and nature appreciation. Dogs must be kept on a leash. Entry is free.
