Ah Fat Dam

Ah Fat Dam sits at 336 metres elevation in Queensland, a modest lake located in the state's interior near the coordinates placing it in the Darling Downs or Central Queensland region.

Getting There and Access

The dam is located at approximately 25.7°S, 150.6°E in Queensland. At 336 metres above sea level, the surrounding terrain is typical of inland Queensland - open and exposed.

Visitor Tips

There is no shade at Ah Fat Dam, so sun protection is essential if you're planning any time outdoors at the site. There are no food or drink facilities available, including no picnic area, so you'll need to bring everything you require with you. Water, snacks, and adequate sun protection should be packed before you leave.

Given the lack of facilities and shade, visits are best kept practical - this is a location suited to those with a specific purpose in mind, such as photography, fishing (if permitted), or simply taking in a quiet stretch of Queensland water.

Best Time to Visit

Given the complete lack of shade, visiting during the cooler parts of the day - early morning or late afternoon - is advisable, particularly in the warmer months when inland Queensland temperatures can be significant. Winter months from June to August offer more comfortable conditions for spending time outdoors at exposed locations like this one.
