Zeehan Lake Tas

Survey Point Zeehan Lake Tas
Latitude-41.8622700 (41° 51′ 44″ S)
Longitude145.3300000 (145° 19′ 48″ E)

If you take Hurst St in Zeehan and go past the caravan park the road turns into a potholed track that leads down to the lake. There are no facilities here. The south side of the dam is heathland, the north side has a small copse of trees in mainly heathland. A marsh below the dam seems unproductive.

Camp rating 8 this is not an established camp and there are no facilities here, but a few spots to prop by the lake, the best being across the dam wall.
