Camping at Lake Ballard

You can freely camp at Lake Ballard but only in the designated camping area.

Please be aware that during the Easter long weekend, camping space is at a premium.

As there is no suitable drinking water at Lake Ballard, you must bring sufficient water with you to meet your drinking and other needs.

The Shire of Menzies has fire restrictions that apply from November through to March. During April – October, open fires are permitted but must be contained within the cement fire rings provided within the camping site. You also need to bring your own fire wood.

The Lake Ballard camping site features self-composting toilets.

Alternatively, if you prefer not to camp at Lake Ballard, the Shire of Menzies has a caravan park in the town. For further enquiries, please contact the Menzies Visitor Centre on 08 9024 2702.
