Lake Glenmaggie

If you love spending a day on the water but hate when there are heaps of people around, Lake Glenmaggie is a well-kept secret just under three hours outside of Melbourne. To get here, you'll travel through Victoria's serene countryside and make your way through the rolling hills of Gippsland. The lake has speed restrictions on the water, so you won't hear any noisy jetskiing or waterskiing during your visit. It's the perfect spot for a quiet fishing trip or for a serene float. The lake is ideal for catching trout, bass, carp and redfin, and you can fry up your catch at the nearby barbecue pits and picnic spots.
