Boat Ramp

Lake Burbury has multiple boat ramp access points serving this 54-square-kilometre hydro-electric reservoir on Tasmania's west coast.

A concrete ramp is located at the Lake Burbury Camping Ground, while a second concrete ramp sits at Thureau Hills, west of Bradshaws Bridge on the eastern side of the lake.

A third launch point is available near Darwin Dam at the southern end of the lake, accessed via Crotty Road; this single-lane gravel ramp is best suited to 4WD vehicles.

The Thureau Hills ramp is a single-lane concrete facility paired with a jetty designed to accommodate fluctuating lake levels, with ample car and trailer parking nearby.

Lake Burbury is rated among Tasmania's top trout fisheries, offering brown and rainbow trout fishing alongside kayaking and canoeing against a backdrop of World Heritage wilderness scenery.
