Moke Lake is a small lake near the suburb of Closeburn in Queenstown in the South Island of New Zealand.
The lake is a popular swimming and camping spot especially during summer.
The access road which heads inland from the Glenorchy-Queenstown Road is a dirt road which passes by the nearby but smaller Lake Kirkpatrick. The Department of Conservation campsite and parking area is at the far end of the lake.
A track encircles the lake which also links up with Lake Dispute. There is also the Moonlight Track which connects up with Arthurs Point.
The boat speed on the lake is limited to 5 km/hr.[1]
