Stranger Pond, a series of two artificial lakes sourced from stormwater discharge from urban and rural areas, are located in the Tuggeranong district of Canberra, within the Australian Capital Territory, Australia. One is called 'Upper Stranger Pond' and is located in the suburb of Isabella Plains. The other is called 'Lower Stranger Pond' and is located in the suburb of Bonython. Lower Stranger Pond is widely known simply as 'Stranger Pond'. Google Maps only labels one of the two ponds – that being the one in Bonython and calls it 'Stranger Pond.'
