LAKE KING
The Lake King town ship is very small.
That said the epicenter is the tavern, war memorial and church.
Still
traveling along Route 40 Lake King is the next community we visit.
Lake King is an hours’ drive east of Hyden. The town is a stopping
place for visitors travelling across arid country and through Frank
Hann National Park to Norseman. It is a crossroads centre with a
tavern and several stores.
In
season the surrounding countryside puts on a wonderful display of
colourful wildflowers. Visit the Lake King saltwater lake, picnic at
the Mount Madden Cairn and Lookout, or visit a yabby (small freshwater
rock lobster) farm.
The
Frank Hann National Park is located 25 kilometres to the east of town
and offers a good representation of the heath flora of inland sand
plains. Lake King offers bed and breakfasts, hotel/motel accommodation
and a caravan park.
The
Lake King Tavern is a traditional and modern.
The
Lake King Church is an active congregation.
The
War Memorial at Lake King gives credence to the importance to the term
‘Lest we Forget'.
Blink
and you may miss Lake King. The tavern will be refreshing moment over
a cool drink.
