Your guide to camping in Mountain View Campground

Overview

Boating

Don’t let Daingerfield State Park’s five m.p.h. boating speed limit deter you—there’s still plenty of fun to be had on the water here, especially if you rent or bring a kayak, canoe, paddleboat, or flat-bottom boat. Grab your friends and spend the day out on the water exploring all that Lake Daingerfield has to offer! A boat ramp is available near Little Pine Interpretive Center.

Fishing

Rent a canoe, kayak, paddleboat or flat-bottom boat and head out for a day of fishing on Lake Daingerfield. The park also offers a fishing pier, fish-cleaning station, and boat ramp, all of which are located near Little Pine Interpretive Center. Some fish you may catch include catfish, bass, chain pickerel, crappie, and perch.

Hiking

Hiking at Daingerfield State Park means exploring more than three-miles of trails dense with pine trees and past a beautiful spring-fed lake and native stone structures. For an easy option, stick to the 2.2 mile Rustling Trees Interpretive Trail, which offers fine views of Lake Daingerfield. For something a bit more challenging, head out on the 1.1 mile Mountain View Trail. Though this hike will only take about an hour, it travels to one of the highest points in the area and can be quite steep at times. But, as usual with hiking, the effort is worth it for the view at the top.

Paddling

If you don’t own one, rent a canoe or kayak and set out to explore Lake Daingerfield! Bring a fishing pole and see if you’re able to snag a catch of the day, or stop at the swimming area for a refreshing dip in the lake!

Swimming

There’s nothing as refreshing as a swim on a warm summer day! Jump in the water at Lake Daingerfield to cool off after a hike or a hot evening of camping. Be sure to check out the swim platform in the park’s designated swimming area, where you can spend hours jumping in the lake or warming up beneath the sun’s rays. Daingerfield State Park does not offer lifeguards, so be sure to keep an eye on the kiddos.

Wildlife watching

Bring a pair of binoculars to check out the many species of birds that call Daingerfield State Park home. Fishing enthusiasts may be lucky enough to catch crappie, perch, chain pickerel, bass, and catfish. On land, keep your eyes peeled for raccoons, white-tailed deer, armadillos, and squirrels. In the spring, you’re likely to see a beautiful display of flowers throughout Daingerfield’s rolling hills as wisteria, redbuds, dogwoods, and other plants bloom.
