Newport Lakes Reserve is a remnant of native bushland in the middle of Altona. It makes a very pleasant walk, and the lakes are very picturesque. It's a great place for a ramble. It's open from 8:00 am to 7:00 pm (9:00 pm in daylight saving time). The only practical approach by car is via Lakes Drive, running off Mason St. Parking is available. Visitors are requested not to feed the birds. A Ranger is on duty at all times. By the way, several signs say prominently "No Dogs" and "Watch Out for Snakes." It's a big park, paths can be followed by visitors, but the gate out at the top of the park is hard to find.

If you want a drink, the park has a water fountain. There are several more benches if you just want to take a break. and there's a garden of succulents . If you need a rest room, Paine Reserve abuts the Library at the Newport Commuunity Hub, which has several sets of toilets, including facilities for the disabled. As the Indian summer drags on, the grass has become a tad dry, but it will perk up when some rain arrives.
