Lake Muir National Park is a national park in Western Australia, located 290km (180miles) south east of Perth to the south of Muirs Highway in the Shire of Manjimup.[1]

Lake Muir and the Muir-Byenup System, a complex of lakes and wetlands, are located in Lake Muir Nature Reserve, which adjoins the park to the north.[2] The Muir-Byenup system is a designated wetland of international importance under the Ramsar Convention.[3] The lake and wetlands are part of the Warren River catchment.[4]

Lake Muir National Park adjoins Mount Roe National Park to the east and south east, and Mount Frankland North National Park to the south.
