If you're interested in a campground surrounded on three sides by 9,000' tall
snow-capped mountains and a large, clear lake, this is the area for you. The
lake is a popular fishing and boating site. Around the Wallowa Lake area, you
can enjoy hiking wilderness trails, horseback riding, bumper boats, canoeing,
miniature golf or ride a tramway to the top of one of the mountains (a rise of
4,000'). Wildlife is abundant in the area (check out our downloadable bird list
(564k); Acrobat required).
There are gift shops nearby and a thriving artist community which does
world-class bronze castings. Tours are available through the foundries and the
showroom displays (they'll keep you interested for hours). Wallowa Lake also
serves as a gateway to visit Hells Canyon, the deepest gorge in North America.
There are activities for everyone in the family.
