    Lake Rosalie Park

    Arrive at Lake Rosalie Park early. The park opens at 05:00, so you have plenty of time. Find a spot near the boat ramp or under one of the shelters/pavilions. The sun is setting toward the WSW, so face that direction to catch the last rays of golden light before the sun dips below the horizon at 17:52.

    Stay for the sunset. The light fades quickly after 17:52. Enjoy the quiet of the lake as the sky changes color.

    Pack up and head out. It is now dark. Check the route for your next stop, as there are no food or drink options listed in the immediate vicinity.

Local tip

The park closes at 22:00, so you have time to stay until late if you wish, but most visitors leave after sunset. Since there are no food or drink shops listed in the context, you will need to find your own dinner and drink spot nearby.
