Lake Day Atlas

South of Joseph, Wallowa Lake sits between pronounced glacial ridges. The state park at its southern end makes the transition from camping or picnicking to the water a short one.

On the water

Plan your lake day

Spend the morning at the park’s beach or marina, then explore the mountain setting on foot. For a different view, pause at the northern end on the drive back toward Joseph.

Field notes

Before you go

Navigate to Wallowa Lake State Park for the southern beach. Trailheads farther up the valley serve mountain routes rather than the lake’s day-use area.
