Clicking on the image below will take you through to the Lysterfield District Trail Riders map. This is more up to date than the Parks Victoria map as it shows the new Follow Me trail and the new Aneurysm trail. Lake Trail is the blue trail on the map below.
The following photo gallery is of the eastern part of the Lake Trail and is typical of it. This is a circuit the kids or inexperienced users can head around on the mountain bikes as it is fairly flat and undemanding being on management roads. I have included it as some families may have inexperienced riders who could do this trail while the other more experienced riders do other trails in the park.
