Itinerary
1
Cleetwood Cove Trail
Cleetwood Cove Trail is the only path in Crater Lake National Park that provides direct access to the lake's shore. This 2-mile round-trip hike is notably steep and strenuous, descending 700 feet to the water.
2
Watchman Peak
The Watchman Peak Trail leads to the historic Watchman Observation Station, a former ranger fire lookout. The moderately challenging 2-mile trail has a 400-foot elevation gain and takes about an hour round trip.
3
Rim Village
Rim Village is a historic area designed specifically for visitors in the early 1900s. Architects worked to blend the rustic buildings into the natural surroundings, using local stone and lumber to complement the landscape.
4
Phantom Ship Overlook
The Phantom Ship formation, named for its resemblance to a ghostly ship, sits offshore and resembles a dark, jagged silhouette in the lake’s mist.
5
Merriam Point
Merriam Point Overlook offers stunning views of Crater Lake, Mount McLoughlin, Mount Scott, Llao Rock, and Wizard Island.
6
Vidae Falls
Vidae Falls, Crater Lake’s most popular waterfall, cascades 100 feet down from a spring fed by snowmelt and rainfall.
7
Pinnacles Overlook Hike
Pinnacles Overlook showcases unique geological formations within Crater Lake National Park. These striking volcanic spires, formed from hardened volcanic matter, tell a story of ancient eruptions and subsequent cooling that shaped the landscape.
8
Plaikni Falls Trailhead
Plaikni Falls Trail offers a peaceful, easy hike, leading to a secluded waterfall. This 2-mile round-trip path is surrounded by a meadow rich in wildflowers, embodying the beauty of the high country—a name given by the indigenous Klamath people.
9
Castle Crest Wildflower Trail
Castle Crest Wildflower Garden is a botanical highlight featuring a vibrant display of native wildflowers.
