Lake Barrine

Let's Checkout Lake Barrine, Crater Lakes National Park Queensland Australia

Lake Barrine is a freshwater lake located within the Crate Lakes National Park on the Atherton Tablelands in Far North Queensland, Australia. It is close to Lake Eacham within the same National Park. The largest of the natural volcanic lakes in the area, Lake Barrine is 730 m (2,395 ft) above sea level. It is about 1 km (0.62 miles) in diameter, with a shoreline of almost 4.5 km (2.8 miles) and an average depth of 65 m (213 ft). No streams or springs feed the crystal clear lake; it is filled only by rainwater. During the wet season a small creek flows out of the lake.

As with Lake Eacham, Lake Barrine was formed over 17,000 years ago when a large volcano erupted, leaving a crater that over time filled up with water to create a lake. The crater or maar was formed as a result of a series of volcanic explosions. These explosions were caused by the hot molten rock coming into contact with groundwater. This caused a build-up of steam, gases and pressure which blasted the central core from the volcano. This massive explosion left a huge crater, which filled with rainwater to create Lake Barrine.

Some 80 m (87 yd) along the walking track there are 2 Bull Kauri (Agathis microstachya) a species of conifer in the Araucariaceae family, endemic to Australia. It has a very restricted distribution, being almost limited to the Atherton Tableland in Far North Queensland, with its elevational range 400–900 m (1,300–3,000 ft) above sea level. They grow up to about 50 m (160 ft) in height and 2.7 m (8 ft 10 in) in diameter. The trunk is unbuttressed, straight and with little taper. Distinctive features are coarse, flaky bark, medium-sized cones with 160-210 scales, and leaves with numerous longitudinal, parallel veins.

THE TABLELANDS / LAKE EACHAM / PETERSON CREEK / TRAVELLING FAMILY IN CAIRNS

This is our first day trip as a digital nomads family exploring the Tablelands since living in Cairns, Australia. There is so much to see but we have decided to check the Curtin fig tree on our way to Yungaburra where we will stop at Peterson creek to have a walk, a picnic and hopefully get to see some platypus. We then head to the lake Eacham for a refreshing swim! What a memorable day! The area is so scenic and there is so much to see around Cairns!

If you don't know us we are a family of four that decided to live life our own way slow travelling. Cairns is our first stop for 6 months before going down the coast of Australia and later overseas.

Consider subscribing we make a video every week :)
