Baandee Lake is a beautiful salt lake in the Central Wheatbelt region of Western Australia. It is 25km east of Kellerberrin on Ski Lake road. This is a popular place for water skiing when there is enough water in the lake. It is also a pleasant free camping area. There are flushing toilets, cold water shower and non-drinking water for washing hands available. In cooler months you can enjoy camp fires in the fire rings provided. We stayed at Baandee Lake in early November. The weather was favourable – not too hot during the day time yet and cooling at night. There was still water in the lake although not enough for water ski activities. With plenty of space for camping along the shore of the lake to choose from, we found a nice spot with gorgeous view which we enjoyed during our 1 night stay there. We were the only ones, although a few cars visited during the day.
Fantastic views and scenery at Baandee Lake
The best thing for us camping at Baandee Lake were the awesome views of the ever changing sky.
So, we witnessed the intensely strong red sunset.
Many satelites (and maybe a comet?) across the sky full of stars but also some clouds.
Aurora passed by leaving a bit of a colour in the sky too. 🙂
Pretty cool sunrise
Some dramatic clouds in the morning just after the sunrise.
and beautiful reflections of the clouds in the lake.
Baandee Lake is in South Doodlakine, Wheatbelt region of Western Australia. It is about 3 hour drive east from Perth.
Beautiful part of god’s creation. Lovely photos as always!
Thank you! Yes, it is such a nice place. We really enjoyed it.
