Colongulac Lake Vic

Survey Point Colongulac Lake Vic
Latitude -38.1983300 (38° 11′ 54″ S)
Longitude 143.1483300 (143° 8′ 54″ E)

Best access is from Depot Rd  from the Old Geelong Rd north of Camperdown. There is a walk through farmland to get to this site, so permission should be sought. Once there, when there is water on the site it’s good birding, otherwise the cleared farmland can be mostly lifeless.

No camping advised here.
