10 State Parks in Wyoming That You Shouldn't Miss
Wyoming boasts a positively selfish hoard of natural outdoor beauty! From the soaring peaks of the Grand Tetons to Jackson Hole valley and Yellowstone National Park, the mountain landscape and natural wonders of Wyoming are breathtaking. All-season outdoor activities prove a natural draw for families, couples and group getaways. Sports lovers golf through spring and summer at attractive rates or tackle river and lake fishing, hunting and hiking. Families take to Alpine skiing and snowmobiling in Jackson Hole, Snow King, Grand Targhee and Pine Creek. Every visitor is awed by the deep canyons and steaming geysers of The Yellowstone National Park. Each magnificent sight rivals the next. The Grand Tetons rise over a mile above Jackson Hole valley, where a ride on the Aerial Tram from Teton Village offers unforgettable views. Across the entire state, wildlife stakes its rightful claim, from bison and bighorn sheep herds to black bear and mountain elk. For a step back in frontier history, take the family to Go Native America to experience Native American culture, history and arts of the Plains Tribes. Enjoy tours with indigenous guides, horseback riding and roping lessons. With every experience, your family will gain a sense of the pioneer spirit that pushed America westward.

The park has trails with ample signage and an excellent visitor center with info on the local flora and fauna. The hike to hidden falls is well worth it, the falls were beautiful in the summer and the cold water was a refreshing break from the heat at the time. There are also lots of nice mountain biking trails of you prefer that to hiking. Stop in and check it out if you're passing through!

6. Guernsey State Park
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 71 reviews
Guernsey State Park provides seven campgrounds. Five are around the lake. All campgrounds include comfort stations, picnic tables, fire grills and drinking water. We also have a trailer dump station located at the south entrance to Guernsey State Park. This park provides the finest examples of Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) work in the Rocky Mountain area. Built by the CCC, the Guernsey Museum, the Castle and Brimmer Point are available to explore. The museum is perched on a high cliff, overlooking the water. The building itself is made of hand hewn timbers and hand forged iron. The roof is framed with the timbers and covered with split cedar shakes, and the floors were formed by pieces of smooth flagstone. The Castle, with its giant fireplace and winding steps, leads to an observation area for a spectacular view of the park.An extensive network of trails was originally planned and partially built during the operation of the CCC camps. Ever since that time hiking and trail use has been a major feature at Guernsey State Park. Approximately ten miles of CCC trails have been restored on the park. Starting point for the trail system is at the Brimmer Point turnoff. The trail system consists of several loops which provide a variety of scenic views of the park, reservoir and the dam. Most of the trails are moderately physically demanding.The Oregon Trail was one of the primary routes used by the immigrants' westward migration across the plains from 1841 to 1869. Today, in many parts of Wyoming, remnants of The Oregon Trail can still be seen. Some of the best examples are the "ruts"; located just 1/2 mile south of the town of Guernsey, off Highway 26.Register Cliff located two miles southeast of Guernsey provided travelers with a "chalkboard" where they placed their names for those who followed. The landmark still remains much the way it looked to pioneers on wagon trains journeying West.

There is so much to see here. It is a beautiful lake and an excellent spot for camping, boating, and playing in the water. However, there is so much more to see than the lake! There are caves, bungalows, stone creations, and museums. One could easily spend an entire day site-seeing and weeks of fun!

This is the coolest place in the town of Evanston. The paved walkways are great for strollers and run along/near the Bear River with great views. We were able to see the elk but unfortunately no bison. The park was very well kept and we really liked how quiet it was being so close to town and I-80. Definitely a great place for a leg-stretching break if traveling through the area!

My husband got us a cabin here to stay before and after we visited Devils Tower. It was fun! We drove to a beach on the reservoir, and a local bar/restaurant. The cabin was perfect for us, with a small kitchenette, two bunkbeds, and a double bed. It was really a lovely area.
