Nestled in a scenic mountain valley at the edge of the Mt. Baker National Forest along the Mt. Baker Highway, discover Silver Lake County Park. One of the main attractions being the lake itself, its reflective, glassy surface is inviting to city folk and outdoor enthusiasts alike.
For those who like to fish, enjoy open stretches of water for trolling, quiet bays, points with drop-offs for bank fishing, and superb areas for fly fishing. Rent a rowboat and spend a quiet afternoon adrift, or for more excitement, launch your hang-glider from the top of Black Mountain. Campers choose from more than 400 acres of campgrounds. For a little insight into the early days, visit the Gerdrum Historical House and Black Mountain Forestry Center. A year-round destination, there’s something for everyone, whether it be picnicking near the swimming beach, relaxing in one of the rustic lakeside cabins or canoeing in the early-morning mist.
