There is plenty to see and do in Mount Gambier, especially if you enjoy the great outdoors and spectacular scenery. However, to many visitors, the best thing to do in Mount Gambier is to experience the Blue Lake. It occupies what was once an extinct volcano and the water changes colour during the year, appearing different shades of blue during different seasons. You can drive or walk around the lake, or descend in an old well shaft to get a closer look. Walking its circumference means you can take advantage of the many informative signs and scenic viewpoints. For something a little different, the trail around the lake is illuminated at night, making a memorable experience. Although the Blue Lake is one of Lake Gambier’s popular sights, it’s not the only one and a visitor here can enjoy several other lakes, caves and volcanic landscapes. Thing to do in Mount Gambier
