Warrina Lakes

Innisfail, Queensland

The Warrina Lakes Parkland is located near Innisfail Township in the Cassowary Coast Regional. LA3 was engaged by CCRC to prepare a Strategic Masterplan for the extensive parkland to increase its role in the town and region’s amenity and increase tourism. The principal objective of this plan was to create a more inviting and interesting place that helps achieve the Council’s vision to revitalise the area and create vibrant and exciting spaces. LA3 identified the existing Lake as the centerpiece that could be opened up, complemented by a central feature and linked by a main axis from the arrival areas and future wetlands in the west of the site. A multi use sports area, outdoor cinema and naturplay were added while other key elements such as the mini-rail loved by all and the historic shed were embellished and better integrated into a larger updated parkland. Specialist gardens were added so that a unique botanical experience can be had by visitors.
