Lake Eildon National Park
A national park surrounding the southern shore of Lake Eildon, with eucalyptus-covered hills alternating with lake inlets. Eastern grey kangaroos are common here.
Lake Eildon National Park was formed by merging the former Fraser National Park with Eildon State Park, covering about 28,000 hectares. Campgrounds in the Fraser section, including Candlebark and Devil Cove, sit close to the lake, and at dawn and dusk the grassy areas are often home to large groups of kangaroos. Trails such as Blowhard Spur let you climb for views over the lake’s inlets. Entry to the park is free, but campsites must be booked through the Parks Victoria website. Pay attention to bushfire risk warnings during summer.
