Mountain Lagoon, New South Wales
Mountain Lagoon is a small village north of Bilpin in Wollemi National Park in New South Wales, Australia in the City of Hawkesbury. Mountain Lagoon is an unusual feature caused by geological tilting of the plateau. The lagoon itself is a natural small lake, perched on a ridge-top way above where any self-respecting lake should find itself. This is because of the mountains uplift twisting the local drainage pattern. The lagoon is on private property, but you can snatch a glimpse of the reed-beds and ducks from Sams Way, the encircles the lake. Part of Sams Way has been planted as an avenue of exotic trees and shrubs that present a Lovely sight in autumn and spring.
