This urban, day-use-only park minutes from Downtown Helena fed by natural springs, is a popular spot for family afternoons of swimming, sunbathing, scuba diving, fishing, birdwatching, and pure play. When you tire of the beach, walk the park’s easy nature trail that circles the lake, home to a wide variety of birds and other wildlife. In winter, you can still stroll along the trail and, if it’s cold enough, ice-skate on the lake.

The park features picnic shelters for folks to enjoy.

No Dogs allowed between April 15th - October 15th. Tenmile Creek Park is a few minutes drive away and great for dogs year round.
