This exceptionally beautiful Great Basin park is part of a high, cold desert near the northeast shore of Wild Horse Reservoir. The sagebrush is rampant here and the wildlife is hardy and plentiful. Rugged anglers come in every season to try their luck at catching trout from the lake’s depths. Hunters trek out in the fall to scour the surrounding hills for pronghorn, deer, elk, and grouse. In spring, you will find the desert transformed into a painters palette, with an abundance of wildflowers showing off snow-capped peaks in the background. And, saving the best for last, summertime brings extreme heat, and extreme adventure. You can swim, boat, paddle, and fish your days away, and sleep under the blanket of a billion stars. Whatever season you chose to visit Wild Horse, you can be sure you’ll never forget it.
