Swan Lake camping area
Campsite
Not quite as magical as a Russian folk tale, but a nice spot nonetheless. The lake is nestled among sand dunes and is a good place for a picnic and a lie-down. Thirty km west of Portland on the road to Nelson is the turn-off for Swan Lake Rd, a steep, loose-gravel road with a number of sharp twists. Caravans will need to be towed by a 4WD. The site is on the Great South West Walk, 16 km from Lake Monibeong.
