The One Hikeable Lake In South Dakota That’s Simply Breathtaking In The Fall
Sylvan Lake is one of South Dakota’s most beautiful lakes year-round, but in the fall it’s especially beautiful. With its pretty trail that measures in at a little more than one mile, a trip to this lake is perfect for the whole family during the autumn months.
Sylvan Lake is the crown jewel of Custer State Park. Nestled between towering cliffs and fragrant pines, this lake is a favorite with park visitors.
During summer months, this lake is packed with tourists visiting the Black Hills. Now that it's fall, you'll find fewer visitors and a much more peaceful, quiet atmosphere.
You'll find the lake at Custer State Park, in the beautiful Black Hills National Forest. For more information about this gorgeous state park, visit its website.
