Recreation Opportunities

Diverse recreation opportunities abound throughout the area administered by the Casper Field Office. Twenty minutes south of Casper is the Muddy Mountain Environmental Education area; 30 minutes away are two lakes - Alcova and Pathfinder. Goldeneye Wildlife Recreation Area is also just minutes from Casper. If you enjoy off-road vehicle riding, the 200-acre Poison Spider off-road vehicle area lies 10 miles west of Casper. The walls of Fremont Canyon near Pathfinder Reservoir offer excellent world class rock climbing.

The North Platte River is a favorite recreation spot for many Casperites. Public access is available along the river at 13 different places.

The south Big Horn Mountains, the Oregon/Mormon Pioneer National Historic Trails and the Bates Hole area in southern Natrona County provide additional opportunities for a variety of recreational experiences.

Hunting for deer, elk, antelope, rabbits, upland bird, and waterfowl is also a popular activity on the public lands managed by the Casper Field Office.
