노스 다코타‬에서 가장 멋진 ‪8‬개의 호수

Lake Metigoshi State Park is a popular destination year-round, offering trails for hiking, mountain biking, and snowshoeing. It also allows canoeing, kayaking, and ice fishing. The park encompasses the shores of five different official lakes and the shores of additional, smaller bodies of water.

The Shoreline Trail traverses the entire north/south length of Lake Sakakawea State Park along the shore of Lake Sakakawea. On this unpaved trail, hikers can see a variety of igneous rock formations and have the chance of spotting a variety of different species of waterfowl and shorebirds.

Lake Sakakawea is a reservoir that was impounded by Garrison Dam in 1953. This lake is named after the Shoshone-Hidatsa woman, Sakakawea, that accompanied Meriwether Lewis and William Clark on what is known as the Corps of Discovery Expedition. This is the largest man-made lake in North Dakota.

Great views of the reservoir and the praire and woodland around the water. There is also a swimming beach nearby and is a great place to stop and take a swim.

President Theodore Roosevelt designated this unique natural area in 1904 as "a big game preserve, refuge and breeding ground for wild animals and birds."

Long scenic road with water views on both sides. Because of its proximity to Devils Lake, it has been impacted with the lake's increasing elevation; portions in and along the lake have had to be raised at least once to get the road elevation above the lake level. Despite this, the route remains vulnerable to flooding.

The park has trails that are accessible year round! In summer you can run, hike, or mountain bike. In winter you can fat bike, show shoe, or cross country ski! There is also, camping, boating, swimming, and fishing available.
