Brighton State Park Details
If you are looking for beautiful lake views that are not overcrowded with tourists, then make sure to add this park to your itinerary. Perched near the shores of Spectacle Pond, this park is surrounded by lush mountains, babbling brooks, and groves of rare mature red pine forests. While there are campsites and lean-tos, it is mostly undeveloped, which is great for those looking to escape into nature. Swimming, fishing, hiking, and wildlife watching are just a few of the popular activities you can participate in during your visit. It is also worth stopping by the ranger center to check out the calendar of interpretive programs, which may include night hikes, campfire programs, or wildlife walks.
