Everything you need for your Lake Eildon adventure

Make the most of your visit with essential planning information. From directions and weather forecasts to lake levels and fire safety, we've got everything you need to plan your perfect Lake Eildon getaway.

Located just two hours north of Melbourne, Lake Eildon is easily accessible via sealed roads through some of Victoria's most scenic countryside. Before you set off, check current conditions to ensure a smooth trip— weather can change quickly in the High Country, and lake levels affect which boat ramps are accessible.

If you're planning outdoor activities like bushwalking, camping, or four-wheel driving, be sure to check fire danger ratings and any restrictions that may be in place. For anglers, we've got information on fishing licences and regulations to help you stay compliant while enjoying world-class fishing.
