Tara Lagoon Parklands HomeLiving HereOur CommunityMajor ProjectsTara Lagoon Parklands Tara Lagoon Parklands Located on the edge of town, Tara Lagoon is part of Undulla Creek and host to a serene camping ground with great facilities and powered sites. A pathway along the water’s edge provides a tranquil walking or cycling track and ample opportunity to enjoy the impressive native parrots and birdlife that collect in the eucalypts. Over time, the Tara Lagoon has become a much-loved space in the community and for travellers visiting the region. As part of Council's COVID-19 Recovery Package, Council is delivering a major revitalisation of the area to boost tourism opportunities and enhance the lifestyle and liveability of the Tara community. The upgrade also complements earlier upgrades delivered by the Tara Futures Group.
