Lake Chisholm
A tranquil lake in the Tarkine rainforest, formed by water filling limestone sinkholes and surrounded by tall myrtle trees.
Lake Chisholm is a lake formed by water filling limestone karst sinkholes. It is surrounded by dense cool temperate rainforest of myrtle. When there is no wind, the lake surface is like a mirror reflecting the forest, making it one of the most popular stops on the Tarkine Drive. A gentle rainforest trail takes about 15 minutes to walk from the car park to the lakeshore. The route includes a stretch of gravel road, so keep an eye on fuel and phone reception on the way in and out.
