The lake was designed in the early 1960s as a flood control basin for residents of Altona and Brooklyn to expand. However, before that, it does have another life, that is, the racing track built in 1954. It is undoubtedly a valuable addition to the region. Accessible Channel. Lots of activities and places to play with children. Dogs can enter, but please pick up rubbish and stay ahead. You can fish-but look at the sign."

"Super slides and ziplines~ The park is very big and has many fun facilities. The slides are three to four stories high, which is very exciting. There are ziplines and you can enjoy it endlessly. There are many free parking spaces in the park, the restrooms are very tidy, and children can play for half a day"

"Cherry Lake is full of treasures. First of all, it is a reserved area with many kinds of animals, and the maps and information are interesting and useful. It's really cool that Captain Altona Butterflies live there. The lake itself has many different environments. There are parks and fitness equipment for people to exercise and entertain themselves; a parking lot overlooking the water and the roaring wind, people can sit in comfortable front seats and enjoy the scenery. Fishing area; a beautiful forest is like a cave leading to another world, with magical bridges and secret picnic spaces, far away from reality. On the arid grassland, rabbits linger among the large bushes, and the reeds in the lake will also take you to faraway places. What a wonderful lake."
