Olallie Lake Scenic Area Loop

Olallie Lake Scenic Area is just that...scenic, you couldn't ask for a more picture perfect place and it makes a wonderful family day hike or extend your stay by pitching a tent at one of the many campsites available and stay for the weekend. At Olallie lake you have everything from adorable cabins to stay in, or tent sites. you can take the family fishing, or rent kayaks and take a tour out on the lake. July may be the best month for the abundant fauna that is in bloom, but it is also the time of year when mosquitoes are the worst and you will most likely be swarmed by the little vampires. I recommend skipping July and waiting until August or even September to avoid their attack. In August the water is the perfect temperature for swimming and kayaking. The trails around the lake meander through beautiful sliver pines, white pines, pinemat manzanitas, whortleberry, and wild huckleberry bushes that will be ripe for the picking...So dust off your hiking boots and grab the whole family, head out for a day, or grab the tent and take the weekend and enjoy the wonderful wilderness surrounding Olallie Lake. Dont' forget you camera on your way out the door!
