4Crater Lake National Park, Oregon
Crater Lake is the deepest lake in the United States, formed by the collapse of a volcano. The lake’s vibrant blue water, surrounded by sheer cliffs and ancient trees, creates a strikingly beautiful and serene environment. The deep blue color is due to the purity and clarity of the water, which is unmatched in many lakes across the country.
Visitors to Crater Lake can enjoy various activities, including hiking along the Rim Drive, taking a boat tour on the lake, or simply soaking in the stunning views from the many overlooks. The park’s stunning scenery, especially in the fall when the surrounding trees change colors, is often hard to believe.
