The Most Remote Lake In North Dakota Is Also The Most Peaceful
We’re not sure there are a whole lot of things in this life that are as relaxing and calming for the soul as a day spent beside – or on – a beautiful lake. Anyone looking for an escape from the hustle and bustle of city life and a more rural alternative to popular natural wonders in North Dakota might want to look up Lake Upsilon, a gorgeous, crystal-clear, 422-acre wonder of the northern United States that you’ve got to see to believe. Come see why this cute little remote lake in North Dakota is all the rage right now, and why it’s the perfect destination for warm-weather good times:
Lake Upsilon is one of North Dakota's most beautiful well-kept secrets.
It's nestled within the lovely Turtle Mountains which, if you ask us, is easily one of the most beautiful places in North Dakota, making the lake, by association, one of the most beautiful places in the state as well.
We're inclined to think so, anyway, based on its overall peacefulness and incredible beauty.
It's a popular lake for fishing, and anyone casting a line in its crystal-clear waters can expect to reel in any number of fish species, like largemouth bass, bluegill, northern pike, rainbow trout, and more.
Hikers will adore Lake Upsilon's nearly 11 miles of pristine shoreline and nearby trails.
One thing most folks notice while spending time at Lake Upsilon is just how peaceful and quiet it is, even when there are other souls on the lake (which isn't terribly often).
The lake is perfect for all sorts of water-based activities like boating, kayaking, and canoeing.
Folks interested in staying more than one day (and we don't blame them) will want to check out the nearby campgrounds, especially Lion Park, an excellent little camping gem that goes tragically undernoticed year after year.
Though Lake Upsilon and its surrounding woodlands are stunning year-round, it does seem to be especially magical in the summer, when everything is lush and emerald green, and during autumn, when the trees explode with color.
There are no limits to the natural wonders of North Dakota, and Lake Upsilon is just one of many points of pride we are thrilled to call our own.
Of course, even if you're not camping, it's worth sticking around to watch the sunset over the lake; few things are quite as breathtakingly beautiful and filled with magic as a North Dakota lakeside sunset, and we think you'll overwhelmingly agree!
