Lewis and Clark State Park, State park on Lake Sakakawea in Williston, United States.
Lewis and Clark State Park covers 525 acres with several bays along Lake Sakakawea, bordered by high ridges and grassy hills across North Dakota's natural terrain. The shoreline offers different views and access points to the large lake.
The Corps of Discovery expedition led by Meriwether Lewis and William Clark set up camp near the current park location in April 1805. This spot marks a key point along their historical journey through the American interior.
The park protects a section of mixed-grass prairie that represents the natural landscape found across North Dakota. You can walk through these grasslands and see the plants that have grown here for centuries.
The park offers four boat ramps, slip rentals at the marina, and modern cabins with air conditioning and refrigerators for overnight stays. The facilities are well-marked and easy to find, especially for boaters and campers.
The park displays different geological formations with interpretive trails explaining how North Dakota's distinctive ridges and prairies were shaped. This natural geology gives visitors insight into millions of years of Earth's formation process.
