Niquette Bay State Park Details

This park covers 584-acres of the northern shore of Malletts Bay, a small inlet located on the eastern side of Lake Champlain. The parks eastern side is mostly forested, with small brooks and creeks traveling down towards the lake. The western landscape is dominated by 400-foot rocky ridges that overlook the water and beaches below, which is starkly contrasted to the tranquil forested area on the eastern side. Although overnight camping is not permitted, visitors can spend the day hiking on the trails or hanging out by the lake. There are several little beaches on the shores where you can go swimming.
