Road to Moke Lake

The journey to Moke Lake involves an 8-kilometer drive along a scenic unsealed gravel road. Although unsealed, the road was pretty smooth to drive on so it’s not a big deal to drive there with any kind of cars. The car park at Moke Lake is near Moke Lake Campsite and Moke Lake Horse Treks.

Leave no trash behind and take back only photos and memories (and also some trash if you can). Walk on the designated path and stay in the middle as much as you can, so that the exposed soil doesn’t spread/corrode further. BE ONE WITH NATURE *flies away*
