Lake Fyans
Water levels
Lake Fyans is a small off-stream reservoir with a small natural catchment. Despite its small size, Lake Fyans supplies water to Ararat, Stawell and Great Western, as well as to some Supply-by-Agreement customers.
The lake is one of the most important recreational lakes in the region. It hosts a number of activities including sailing, jet skiing, hunting and caravanning.
A 9.6 km walking track around the perimeter of Lake Fyans is a feature with splinter tracks available to explore the diverse plant life, nature trails and bird trails.
Lake Fyans Embankment Upgrade works
Lake Fyans is being upgraded with works on the embankment and marina. These works will desilt and deepen the marina, allowing larger boats to continue to use it, even when water levels are lower. Find out more about the project
