About Lake Claiborne State Park

Lake Claiborne State Park sits on a large reservoir in Claiborne Parish in northwest Louisiana. Visitors can swim at a sandy beach on a protected lake inlet, fish for several species, rent boats and canoes, and stay in cabins or at campsites. Trails range from short nature paths to a longer hiking route and a bike trail, and park naturalists lead programs and guided hikes.
