Lakes and Craters landscape

Lakes and Craters

The existence of the Lakes and Craters Region can be traced back to a lengthy period of volcanic activity that spanned over thousands of years. The most expansive lake in Victoria, Lake Corangamite, is characterized by its salt water and contains a salinity concentration higher than the ocean. During periods of drought, the salinity of this lake can surge to extreme levels. This location serves as a habitat for brine shrimp, which is a crucial food source for both local and migratory birds. A lot of lakes in Victoria have evaporated over time, and it's not a rare sight to witness concrete boat ramps leading towards grassy expanses. However, many lakes still sustain, boasting ample water levels and abundant fish populations.
