Lake Talbot Water Park: The Riverina’s Ultimate Summer Day Out

The weather’s warming up, the esky’s calling, and Lake Talbot Water Park is officially open for the summer. If you’ve been hanging out for that first swim of the season, this is your sign to pack the car and head for the water.

This is the Riverina’s answer to the coast: blue skies, cool water, and that unmistakeable soundtrack of laughter, splashing, and “watch this!” echoing across the lawns. With three swimming pools, waterslides, a splash park, and plenty of shady spots to throw down a towel, Lake Talbot Water Park is the definition of an Aussie summer.

Up for a bit of friendly rivalry? Challenge your mates to the high-speed racer slide — a heart-thumping, grin-inducing spring to the bottom that’s guaranteed to end in bragging rights.

The splash park is all action and colour, with water jets, tipping buckets, and sprays made for cooling off and having fun, no matter your age.

There’s room for everyone here — from toddles wading in the shallows to parents catching a breather under the trees. Lifeguards are on duty, so you can relax knowing everyone’s safe hands while you fire up the BBQ. Pool-level change rooms and wheelchair access straight into the water make it easy for the whole family to join in. Add in lake views and a warm afternoon and you’ve got a recipe for the perfect summer day.

Whether you’re road-tripping through the Riverina or just escaping the heat for a few hours, Lake Talbot Water Park, is summer done right.
