Lake Levels
Current water storage and conditions
Lake Eildon is Victoria's largest water storage, holding up to 3,334 gigalitres when full. The lake's water level fluctuates throughout the year based on rainfall, water releases for irrigation, and environmental flows down the Goulburn River system.
Checking current lake levels before your visit is essential for planning water activities. Water levels affect boat ramp accessibility, swimming conditions, and the visibility of shoreline features. During low water periods, submerged hazards become more prominent, so extra caution is advised when boating.
