Lake Eildon

Fun. Lots of free camping available. Marsh flies everywhere!

Amazing place for camping so many spots there should be way more places like this in Victoria

Really nice spot that I never knew of, although fresh out of lockdown there were plenty of people that had filled out the campsites, but still room for more. Plenty of options as to where to camp around the lake and some fun hilly light 4x4ing throughout, although most is accessible by your grandmas shopping and church car as we saw while we were there. Beautiful stars at night too, some drop toilets at some of the sites, plenty of wood and fire pits around too. Will be back!

best place to visit!can do lot of activities!

We decided go on a little adventure out of Melbourne to Lake Eildon. It took us about 2 hours drive from the centre of Melbourne, passing Yarra Valley and Healsville.It was such a calming feeling to see all the greens, cows, horses, sheep along the away outside of the hustle and bustle of the city.We were lucky we got to experience both sunny day and the foggy erry vibes at the Lake Eildon.On the first day we went for a walk along the lake, saw the dam, met some fishermen & enjoyed the beautiful scenery.The next day we had our little picnic catchups and kayaked on the lake. The water was still unless occasionally boats making waves otherwise pretty cool experience being on the kayak and close to the nature.Although it was foggy and you couldn't see the whole of hills around but it added to that unique kayaking in winter feelings!Either way, whatever weather you find yourself in it's all about what you make of it. Happy travels!

I went for a day trip to the weir.the lake is huge suitable for water skiing, house boats ,fishing. The water level goes up and down over the years. The weir it self is amazingly pretty even if their is not much there , a great spot for a day trip and picnic BYO everything

Amazing camp sites and fishing spots, so beautiful.

Heaven on Earth this place! Am fortunate enough to own a houseboat and get to spend a lot of time out on the water, and is just beautiful! Absolute heaven!

Loved swimming in this lake. Not too far away from Melbourne and there are many campgrounds around the lake to choose from.
