Alcova Lake

Alcova Lake is located 33 miles southwest of Casper on Wyoming Highway 220. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities, including boating on the lake, driving through the small town of Alcova, or, for those who want to be active, hiking the Dinosaur Trail on a fossil-rich hill above Cottonwood Beach on the west side of the lake. The Natrona County Parks Department maintains campgrounds and picnic areas. For more information, see http://www.recreation.gov/recAreaDetails.do?contractCode=NRSO&recAreaId=1228&agencyCode=129.
