Lake Eildon Tourist Boom

New town tourism opportunities arise in Bonnie Doon with the new town and lake.

Tourism opportunities such as boating, fishing, skiing and other water recreational activities. A caravan park was built, then boat ramps, picnic areas, stores, hotels, motels, garages, cafes, and holiday houses.

Bonnie Doon, with its surrounding rivers and mountains, has remained a tourist destination, particularly in summer after the spring rains refill Lake Eildon and water-skiers pass under the bridge where the old racetrack lies below.

These days Bonnie Doon serves as a High Country gateway to the many amazing outdoor and recreational pursuits that are offered here in North Eastern Victoria, camping, boating, fishing, snow skiing and bush walking to name a few!
