Cascade Lake at Moran State Park offers options for all ages. The lake itself is surrounded by family-friendly activities ranging from playgrounds to hiking trails and boat rentals. The area is in close proximity to the Moran State Park campground, so it is a short walk between the destinations if you are staying in the park. If you’re looking for some unique activities, take a stroll along the shoreline trial to the west side of the lake, where you’ll find a pedestrian bridge that is a perfect height for jumps into the bay below. Also, with non-motorized boat rental options on site, you can enjoy a day of paddling on the lake.
