Scorch Lake Lookout Trail

Although this 942 meters hiking trail is very steep it’s well worth the climb to see the spectacular view of Scorch Lake.

Starting in the south bay of Scorch Lake, the trail rises through a hardwood forest. Some large quartz veins cross the trail just before it opens out into an Oak Barren. The trail heads north to some rocks overlooking Scorch Lake.

Cautions: The rocks overlooking Scorch Lake can be slippery when wet so caution should be used. Cost: A Park Permit is required at a cost of $12.00 per vehicle. They are available at Pine Grove Point Lodge which is located at the end of the Kingscote Lake Access Point Road.

Directions: The Scorch Lake Trail can only be accessed by interior users from Scorch Lake.
