Sand Dune Hike

Join park staff for a hike through the sand dunes. The sand dunes form along the east shore of the lake and provide a unique environment. Discover some of the plants and animals of the dunes, along with history of the valley’s early inhabitants. Participants should bring water, binoculars, a camera, and sturdy hiking boots, as most of this trail involves hiking in loose sand.
