From the southern carpark, the Lake Kaniere Track climbs in gentle zigzags – gravel surfaces for bikes – sidles the northern face of Mt Upright to a wooden viewing platform. The climb is rewarded by our first look at Lake Kaniere: mirror flat reflecting low hills to the north, tranquil in it’s green bush-covered basin.

The track descends to the lakeshore – no sign remaining of Lawyer’s Delight Hut. More a sidle track than lakeshore track we climb and fall over spurs and bluffs - occasional glimpses of the water through trees. Two small streams form flat gravel fans out into the lake and provide the only flat spots for those wishing to pitch a small tent.

North of the second stream fan, the track finally gives up it’s sidling, runs flat and easy along the lake shore to the roadend at Sunny Bight. The picnic area and toilets are 300m beynod.
