LAKE EILDON
U KNOW
Lake Eildon has over 500km of
shoreline and at full capacity
can store six times as much
water as Sydney Harbour.
Lake Eildon is the only reservoir
in Victoria where houseboats are
permitted. Water released from
Lake Eildon is diverted for irrigation
purposes and supplies around 60%
of the water used in the GoulburnMurray Irrigation District.

Lake Eildon is one of
Victoria’s most popular
holiday destinations.
The lake is fed by clear
mountain rivers and is
surrounded by rolling hills,
dense forest and open
woodland. This makes it a
favourite spot for boating
and water skiing, shing
and bushwalking. The
surrounding countryside
is prized for its eucalypt
forests, wildlife and fresh
mountain air.
@tom.molinaro
The lake is a mecca for lovers
of water sports including
skiing, wakeboarding,
kayaking and canoeing.
Boat hire equipment is
available for those keen
for a thrill. Try renting a
houseboat or ‘boatel’ for
a truly special Lake Eildon

is more relaxing than
spending a few days out
on the water, watching
the world go by from
the comfort of your own
private lounge, or from the
top deck as you cast a line
and watch the kids swim.
