Bradys Lake

Bradys Lake campground sits on the shores of Bradys Lake in Tasmania's Central Highlands, roughly 34 km southeast of Derwent Bridge.

Managed by Hydro Tasmania, lakeshore camping is permitted on the western shore near the boat ramp and on the eastern shore at Tunnel Bay. The western shore site has accessible toilets; no bins are provided, so campers must pack out all rubbish.

A 14-day stay limit applies at the western shore site, while the Central Highlands Council notes a seven-day maximum for the broader camping area.

The lake is a popular destination for anglers targeting brown trout, as well as kayakers and whitewater enthusiasts drawn to its internationally recognised slalom course. Two boat ramps provide lake access.

Campers are asked to keep to formed tracks, use formal fireplaces or firepots for fires, and respect Hydro Tasmania land rules. Shooting is prohibited on site.
