Maybe I should wait till I hear if it has changed before I make changes. What do you think?

They are building a visitors centre in the Dove Lake carpark. There is currently no parking available. You will need to catch a bus from the entrance to Cradle Mt NP or if visiting outside of park hours you can drive to Ronnie's Creek and then hike the rest of the way in.

Not sure if once the new building is open they will allow parking at Dove Lake again. The buses seem to be a permanent fixture now.....apparently there were several accidents along the narrow single lane road.
