The lake is located within the south-west region of Western Australia, 15km south east of Collie. The name Lake Kepwari comes from local Willman language “Kepwari” meaning “ playing in water”.
This piece of paradise has something for everyone, with a designated water ski area on the lake with a boat ramp, with calm waters that are perfect for swimming and canoeing activities on the lake. You can even try your luck fishing for redfin, perch or even try catch a marron, but please be aware that there is a fishing season and license is required.
Lake Kepwari also provides not one but two day use picnic areas with stunning views. Gas barbecues are provided.
Dogs are more then welcome, but they must remain on a leash at all times.
There is nothing like camping by the lake with friends and family so book in fast as spots are limited.
