About Wallowa Lake State Park
A glacial lake stretches along the northern edge of this park, with the developed shoreline sitting at its southern end. The park lies within the Wallowa Mountains region of northeast Oregon, bordered directly by the small town of Wallowa Lake. Visitors reach it by traveling a short distance south from Joseph, passing through terrain shaped by glacial activity that formed the lake basin itself.
Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
