Lake Metigoshe State Park is located 14 miles northeast of Bottineau,
North Dakota on the shores of beautiful Lake Metigoshe, amid the
scenic Turtle Mountains near the US/Canadian border. Lake Metigoshe
State Park is one of the most popular year-round vacation destinations
in the state.
Lake Metigoshe is noted among anglers for its excellent North
Dakota fishing because northern pike, walleye and perch are so
plentiful there. Ice fishing is popular in the winter.
The rolling hills, aspen forests are a paradise for hikers and
nature photographers. The Old Oak Trail, a National Recreation
Trail found within the park boundaries, provides a perfect opportunity
to do both.
The park has facilities for both modern and primitive camping
and picnicking. There are cabins available for rent year-round.
Winter provides lots of outdoor activities like snowmobiling,
cross-country skiing, skating and sledding. The park features
some 250 miles of groomed trails throughout the Turtle Mountains.
