Glendalough State Park: Used to be a private reserve visited by many past presidents and VIPs with more than nine miles of undeveloped Otter Tail County shoreline and six lakes. This park offers excellent fishing, bird watching, and hiking trails through oak and northern hardwood forests. During spring and fall migration, to the delight of birdwatchers, the park becomes a major waterfowl staging area. Two observation areas in the park provide excellent opportunities to see wildlife activity. 

Today, the park totals more than 32,000 acres and includes more than 100 lakes. Walk across the mighty Mississippi as it starts its winding journey 2,552 miles to the Gulf of Mexico. Stand under towering pines and visit landmarks of centuries gone by throughout the park. 

Over 9,250 acres of woods, eight major lakes and several ponds, this state-protected habitat is great for hiking, bird watching, biking, horseback riding, snowmobiling, swimming, and fishing. The park is host to 150 bird species and 50 species of mammals. Lake Lida has a sandy beach and large picnic areas for visitors a great place to relax and enjoy nature. The fall colors are amazing.
