Five hundred kilometres of shoreline gives you room to move. Cast for a trophy trout at dawn, point the houseboat at a quiet bay, or leave the water behind for a ridge-line walk in the High Country.
Pick a category below. Every activity has the good oil on where to go, what to bring, and how to do it safely.
For beginners
New to the lake? Start with a gentle bushwalk at Fraser, try your hand at fishing from the shore at Jerusalem Creek, or book a guided kayak tour to learn the basics with local guides.
For families
Shallow swimming bays, easy walking tracks suitable for prams, and fishing spots where kids can catch their first fish. Many boat ramps have adjacent picnic areas.
For adventure seekers
Multi-day hikes in the Cathedral Range, technical 4WD tracks in Big River, and wakeboarding on the main lake. The terrain has thrills for every skill level.
Equipment hire
Boats, kayaks, paddleboards, fishing rods and camping gear from local operators — find them in the directory.
