Silver Lake State Park

Silver Lake State Park sits along the northern shore of a lake in central Vermont and spans about 34 acres. The property offers camping areas, swimming spots, and trails suited for various outdoor activities throughout the seasons.

The park was established in 1955 to provide public access to outdoor recreation and nature. This creation reflected Vermont's effort to protect natural spaces for future generations.

The park serves as a place where locals and visitors spend time outdoors throughout the year. In summer, families come to swim and picnic, while winter invites ice skating and fishing.

The park has about 40 camping sites and shelters with facilities such as restrooms, running water, and hot showers. Visitors should plan their trip for the season, as trails and access vary based on snow and weather conditions.

The lake freezes over in winter and becomes a natural ice surface where people can skate and fish. This makes the park offer entirely different experiences depending on the season.
