SUP boards Dove Lake

At Cradle Mountain’s foot, Dove Lake is circled by a 6-kilometre track that provides one of Tasmania’s top walks.

The walk contains Cradle Mountain views, unexpected beaches on the lake’s side, the ancient Ballroom Forest, a patch of Tasmania notorious horizontal scrub, and the occasional platypus or echidna.

Dove Lake Tasmania

Dove lake is on the northern side of the Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair national park. It is easy to drive vehicles to the lake anyway. Parking may be restricted.

Your park access fee contains free use of the Dove lake shuttle bus, which departs the visitor centre for Dove lake regularly.

Although this lake is small, few other locations provide such amazing tranquillity. Placed within a national park, it is the best escape from urban life.

Its shore is framed by beach trees, dynamic pines, and the prominent snowcapped peaks of Cradle Mountain.

Flatwater paddlers will want to take their time as they gradually move via this oasis, where apparent water show the pebble covered base and mirror-like reflections of the best landscape.

Getting there

Cradle mountain is placed at the northern end of Cradle mountain lake St Clair national park.

It is a 2.5-hour drive from Launceston through Sheffield and 1.5 hours drive from Devonport. From Sheffield, take the C132 and C136 to the park entrance.

There is no direct road attach via Cradle Mountain-lake Clair national park to join the park’s 2 ends.

The Cradle Mountain visitors and transit trinomial is the departure point for the Dove lake bus shuttle.

The shuttle bus service aims to save the world Heritage place’s significance values and preserve the visitor experience by restricting vehicle numbers in the park.

Tom Leithner SUP
Hello, I'm Tom Leithner, a true enthusiast in SUP boards. I'm writing this blog to help you select paddleboard and give you important information that you might miss in the sea of boards. I'm a big fan of getting out in the water and enjoying the outdoors. I've been supping for years now, and I'm enjoying it every day. For me, paddleboarding was just an idea before it transformed into a passion, and through that process, I have learned so much about this amazing sport.
