Belmont

Belmont brings swimming, lakeside scenery and outdoor activities together in one holiday destination. At Belmont Baths, the jetty and swimming area take centre stage; Green Point Foreshore Reserve connects Belmont and Valentine and offers picnic areas with lake views. If you enjoy walking, running or cycling, the Fernleigh Awabakal Shared Track offers another way to spend time outdoors.

Lakeside and swimming facilities

Green Point Foreshore Reserve is on the lake and connects Belmont with Valentine. It has picnic areas and lake views. This makes it a place to pause by the water: you can plan a picnic or make the lake views part of your day. Belmont Baths offer a different focus. The 45-metre-wide swimming area and 70-metre-long jetty give the swimming facility clearly defined dimensions.

Facilities at Belmont Baths include toilets, cold showers, picnic tables and covered areas. An access ramp leads to a deep-water platform and is relevant for people with mobility impairments. A Mobi aquatic chair can be borrowed on request from the local council to provide wheelchair access to the Baths. If you would like to use this option, arrange the request and loan with the local council before your visit. Also check current conditions at the Baths and local information about the facilities before you travel.

The Fernleigh Awabakal Shared Track also offers a different way to spend time outdoors. It connects Belmont with Blacksmiths and is suitable for walking, running and cycling. These three activities allow for different holiday-day rhythms: you can plan a walking trip, fit in a run or take the track by bike.

Which holiday apartment suits your holiday priorities?

When looking for a holiday apartment in Belmont, it helps to first decide what you want your days away to be like. If swimming and the facilities at Belmont Baths are your priority, you can take this into account when planning. For a quieter break by the water, the picnic areas and lake views at Green Point Foreshore Reserve can help guide your choice. If you prefer to stay active, the options on the Fernleigh Awabakal Shared Track may be more important to your plans. This way, you can choose where to stay based on the experiences that matter most to you, rather than giving every activity equal weight.

Belmont can therefore be explored from several angles: as a place for swimming, as a starting point for picnics and lake views, and as a gateway to activities on the shared track. Consider which of these experiences you want to shape your stay, and factor them into your search for a suitable holiday apartment.
