It is also used extensively for recreational activities such as water skiing, wakeboarding, freshwater fishing (trout & marron in season and with license), and also canoeing and kayaking. There are great facilities at Lake Navarino/Waroona Dam including picnic tables, barbecues and toilets.??The surrounding forest provides beautiful displays of wildflowers in season. Bush walking is a popular pastime for many visitors and part of the old Bibbulmun Track is still in existence and has been reopened for public use as part of the Munda Biddi Trail. Dogs on leash are permitted. Located ten minutes east of Waroona, Lake Navarino has a holiday park with on-site accommodation plus the lakeside camping area. During late winter, Waroona Dam often overflows creating an amazing spectacle.
