Been there this weekend 20 January 2022, and it's still closed for public due to some work on the Dam wall.

Fantastic campground, is currently closed for repair works to the dam wall, due to reopen mid 2021. Will be exciting to see the changes once it’s reopened.

Question:

Hi there. Does anyone know if you can put a fishing boat in here? Thanks

Answer:

I used to live in Warburton and as far as I can remember it there is no boating allowed. It is the local drinking supply by Gary T.

Answer:

No it’s a water catchment, you can’t access the lake at all. Eildon would be the closest lake for boat fishing. by Jeremy R.

Answer:

The Upper Yarra Reservoir is a water supply catchment for Melbourne. It's protected from entry to prevent contamination of the water supply. You can't enter the water supply catchment or the buffer area below the reservoir, except for access to Reservoir Park. by Gary T.
