This lack is perfect spot for camping, the campground is well designed. Perfect for families with kids to enjoy water sports. To walk around the lack, flats easy walk, it is 2 miles loop. Perfect for easy hike. Most of the path paved or board walk in muddy areas. Just beautiful and serene area. Admission fee $10 per car for day pass. Not sure about the campground overnight. I guess $26!

We visited on a Friday midday, renting a tandem kayak ($35) 11:30am-12:30pm. (Ideally, earlier would have been better — it got very busy by the time we were finished and parking was almost non-existent.) The lake and peaceful paddle were amazing! We saw a lot of dogs on SUP, which was fun. This is a great spot for scenic walks, picnics … or take a book and just relax, Mt Hood is majestic rising above the tree line.

No awesome view for us, but it was still a nice little stop. The lake is a short walk from the parking area and there are a few covered pavilions that we walked past. we went out on the docks for a bit and took some pictures of the clouds where Mt. Hood was hiding. It just odd to know it is out there, but with the clouds, there is nothing that even suggests it's there. Hopefully you have better luck. We knew we probably wouldn't be seeing it as we stayed at the Timberline the night before and could barely see the lodge, let alone the mountain it was on.

Absolutely the most gorgeous shots of beautiful Trillium Lake with Mount Hood! Go early in the morning and try for some reflection shots, then walk the two mile loop around the lake and photograph until you think you have enough! Well worth the $10 fee even if that’s all the time you have!

So glad we came here after visiting Mount Hood. There is a $8 charge to enter but well worth it! Absolutely breathtaking view. We took a nice little hike around the lake. Enjoyed watching the people kayaking and fishing. So peaceful to just sit at the edge of he water looking towards the mountains. Nice place to have a picnic. A must see for sure!

Trillium Lake's 2-mile loop hike offers a perfect blend of serenity and stunning views. The trail is easy and well-maintained, making it accessible for all levels. The highlight, without a doubt, is the serene reflection of Mount Hood on the lake. It almost looks fake. Whether you're walking through the tall trees or along the peaceful shoreline, this hike is perfect. It's a great spot to take your time, breathe in the fresh air, and simply enjoy nature’s tranquility.
