Glendo State Park, Wyoming

For a gorgeous weekend in Wyoming’s colorful and sprawling landscapes, look no further than Glendo State Park. Several prize fish have been caught in the Glendo Reservoir that weaves through the park, fed by the North Platte River—maybe you’ll catch the next? In town, Bellwood Boats is THE spot to rent any jet skis or pontoons your visit may require. 40 miles of beautiful non-motorized trails stretch through red and white rock, weaving around the seven camping areas in the park from the marina to Sandy Beach (Two Moon is the largest and offers the best tall-tree coverage). And make sure to venture into nearby Douglas during your stay to check out the surprisingly cool Wyoming Pioneer Memorial Museum, or the natural Ayres Natural Bridge arch—like Utah’s great arches, only covered in vibrant green plants!
