Park at the western end of Elizabeth Beach (pacific palms). Follow the trail over the hill to 7 Mile Beach. Walk through 'The Ruins' camp ground, cross the road and follow the signs to the lake. The trail follows the lake until 'the Sunset' park. The trail wants you to walk back up the hill you've just walked but if you follow the road for 200m and turn left onto Lakeside Crescent it will lead you back to the car. Its a very hilly walk. Not suited to elderly or non mobile.

Picturesque boardwalk through the beach scrub directly across the road from the apartment. The board walk starts in the beach carpark across the road behind the toilet block and leads to the famous sand dune at the northern end of One Mile Beach.
