About Farragut State Park

Farragut State Park occupies the grounds of a World War II Navy training station on the southern end of Lake Pend Oreille in northern Idaho. The park offers camping in many site types, cabins, and group areas, along with more than 40 miles of trails for hiking, biking, and horseback riding. Visitors can play on five disc golf courses, swim at Beaver Bay Beach, launch boats at Eagle Boat Launch, and try a tree-to-tree aerial adventure park. The Museum at the Brig displays memorabilia from the former naval station and is open seasonally. Winter visitors can enjoy cross-country skiing, snowshoeing, and sledding.
