North Hero State Park Details
If you are looking for a place on Lake Champlain without crowds, then this is the park for you. Most of this 399-acre area is unspoiled natural forest, which is relatively uncommon for these regions around the lake. That means you will be able to relax on the rocky beaches or wander through flooded wetlands without rubbing shoulders with other guests. Wildlife watchers are also spoiled by the sheer number of creatures that live in the area. Migratory birds can often be spotted in the wetlands while white-tailed deer frolic through the densely wooded forest. The park is also a nesting ground for turtles, and parts of the beach may be roped off when eggs are present.
