About

The Manzanita Lake Area features the Loomis Museum, a gift shop, restrooms, a few lakeside trails and a campground.

It's a great place to get your bearings if you enter the park from the north. And it's also a fun place to just kickback, relax and hang out for the afternoon. You can rent a kayak, swim or walk along Manzanita Lake on the easy 2-mile loop path. You'll find stunning views of Lassen Peak from the lake's north shore.

For details about the other trails or things to do, tap the map marker titled "Exploring the Manzanita Lake Area.
