This is a series of at least three lakes hidden in the Wild Basin area. The Lion Lakes are surrounded by open areas, pine tree lines, and features a rocky landscape. The area has many places to explore, offering different spots to have a picnic and enjoy quiet moments, appreciating the wild nature around. The trail to the lakes starts at Wild Basin trailhead, going through the forest and small meadow areas. It is not a technical trail, but is quite long, and it can have snow along it for most of the year; it is better to ask the rangers about the trail conditions, and in any case it’s good to have some waterproof hiking shoes and a pole to check what is beneath the snow.
