Description

Possibly one of the park's best views along Highway 20, the Diablo Lake Overlook cannot be missed. Take a short stroll around the parking lot on wide, open paths for stunning views of Diablo's blue waters, and on clearer days, the towering North Cascades above.

On the Road: There is a smaller parking lot just off the highway, yet with ample space. Restrooms and picnic tables available.

Family Friendly: Accessible area just off the road with views of some of the park's best scenery. Viewpoints are lined with railings.
