Short drive to Lake Bumbunga

Tripoto
18th Feb 2017

While I was in Adelaide, me and my friends took a short trip to Lake Bumbunga, which was about 135kms drive, North of the metropolitan. It would normally take around a couple of hours for the drive considering taking a break or two during the drive.

It is popular locally and also has a nick name as the local pink lake. In fact, it truly is Pink in colour. Sounds interesting, isn't it?

So we got all ready and set off before just stopping at one of the last major servos heading out of the town where we had some food and refreshments to pacify our bellies.

This spot is always a pit-stop to us and most of the others while heading north out of the town

Overall, it was a decent drive on that day except that it was cloudy and quiet windy at the lake. If you've got nothing else to do and eager just for a sight of a pink lake, then head here, otherwise there is nothing much happening around here.
