Lake Wivenhoe

January 31, 2016 by David

If you are in Brisbane, and are looking for a serene place to steal away from the city, then this dam is it. On arrival at the dam, you are welcomed by tranquility that easily merges with the dam’s quiet surroundings and panoramic views.

The blue colors of the dam stretch forth, seemingly to the horizon where the waters touch the skies. The tranquility of the dam on the other hand, makes for a quiet and chilled destination. Those traveling with kids are often more than glad to unwind at the dam.

Some of the activities that one can indulge in while at the park include fishing, boating and camping, all of which require permits from the dam’s management. Looking for a new hobby while traversing beautiful Brisbane? You cannot possibly go wrong with fishing at the dam. For those who would like adventure in the waters, nothing beats boating on the placid waters. Note however, only non-fuel powered boats are allowed at Wivenhoe Dam.

Water lovers also get to enjoy swimming in the waters (in designated areas away from the boating zone) a popular activity at the height of summer in Australia. For those who prefer mellow activities, one can always go picnicking. Picnics are a favorite family activity for many visitors where sharing a barbecue meal with such scenic views makes for such memorable moments.

Camping at the dam offers an unforgettable experience for those who want to be one with nature. There is something magical about quiet nights peppered only by gentle winds and birds chirping in the distance. That, plus if you are a budget traveller you know too well how camping offers such an excellent accommodation option.

There are a number of facilities on location, all designed to make your stay as comfortable as possible. There is ample car and coach parking, sheltered sheds where you can steal a few moments for yourself and a barbecue area. For visitors looking for a corporate event right in the heart of nature, then the conference center at Wivenhoe Dam is just ideal.

Look out for interpretive displays that provide you with more information on the dam as well as the information trail. The lookout at the dam is the go-to place for stunning panoramic views of the dam and beyond. To learn more about the history of the dam, make sure you book for information sessions prior to your arrival. Group tours are also available with prior arrangement.

The park at the dam hosts a number of events from time to time, so check out the events calendar on the official website. Other details that are relevant to your Wivenhoe Dam trip include the following:
