Ewen Maddock
Ewen Maddock Dam is located 5 km north of Landsborough on the Sunshine Coast.
Only non-motorised vessels suck as canoes, kayaks, row boats and sailing boats are allowed on the water.
It is an un-gated dam, so water flows over the spillway at 100 percent capacity.
What to expect
Pleasant lake paddling surrounded by forested terrain. Restricted to unpowered vessiles, the lake provides a break from the bustle seen in more popular areas during the summer months.
Logistics
There is a single put-in point, a sandy beach near the main car park of Maddock Park.
It is operated by SEQWater.
