Lost Creek Crater Lake Campground

The centerpiece of Crater Lake National Park is the six-mile wide Crater Lake, which lies in the collapsed caldera of a volcano inside Mount Mazama. Crater Lake National Park has two visitor centers staffed daily by park rangers and volunteers. Crater Lake has inspired people for hundreds of years. No place else on earth combines a deep, pure lake, so blue in color; sheer surrounding cliffs, almost two thousand feet high; two picturesque islands; and a violent volcanic past. It is a place of immeasurable beauty, and an outstanding outdoor laboratory and classroom.
