Lake Claiborne State Park, State park in Claiborne Parish, Louisiana, US.
Lake Claiborne State Park is a state park in Louisiana built around a large freshwater lake at its center. The land stretches across thousands of acres with wooded areas surrounding the water, where visitors can swim, boat, and fish.
The park was established in the middle of the 20th century as a way to create a new recreation area for northern Louisiana. This project reshaped the landscape and became an important place for the region's residents to spend leisure time.
Families from the area come here to participate in fishing tournaments and disc golf competitions that have been part of local tradition for many years.
Visitors can stay in cabins, camp at designated sites, or bring their own RV to the park. Boats are available to rent at the main dock, and the park has options to suit different preferences.
The park includes two professional 18-hole disc golf courses built within the natural pine forest. These courses attract disc golf players from all over the region who come to play on these specific layouts.
