Why it's worth checking out
The Regatta Point Precinct sits at Parkes, by Lake Burley Griffin in central Canberra. A near-perfect 4.9 rating from 14 reviews reflects its standing as a much-loved spot.
The appeal is a beautiful lakeside setting — a precinct on the shores of Lake Burley Griffin near the National Capital Exhibition, a genuine favourite for a walk, a picnic, lovely lake views or simply soaking up the surrounds close to the city. It's a lovely, largely free spot.
Lakeside precincts have changing facilities and can host events, so pick your moment. It's a lovely spot to enjoy whenever the weather's good — bring sun protection, water and take your time by the lake.
