About Summit Lake Stock Corral

Summit Lake Stock Corral (elevation 6,700 ft.) is conveniently located on the main road of Lassen Volcanic National Park. The stock corral is within walking distance of the small but scenic Summit Lake and seven miles from the trailhead to Lassen Peak, the largest volcano in the park (elevation 10,457 ft.). Riders will find one of the park's major trails only 1/4 mile away from the stock corral. A convenient horse trail leads to the Summit Lake Ranger Station where the trailhead is located. Many more trails are in close proximity with access to Juniper Lake, Snag Lake, and Butte Lake. The Pacific Crest Trail, which runs through the park, is also accessible from the Summit Lake Stock Corral.

It was beautiful. Plenty of room and we had it all to ourselves.

We had a great time riding the trails of Lassen volcanic park. The two corrals there were ample for our animals. Just watch out for the rogue deer that attacks dogs!

The park staff and rangers were all very friendly and helpful. The actual camp site for horses should have been located on the same side of the highway as the lake rather than across the street. We camped during the Labor Day holiday and it was too dangerous from all the traffic to cross with our mules. You need more horse only trails developed from the campsite that do not require crossing a road traveled by cars!
