WE'RE PROUD
TO BE PLATTE :
A Wyoming county with plenty of room to stretch out and get comfortable.
Around here, there’s always room on our beaches for one more. (Making it all the better for settling in and experiencing the kind of lake days they write country songs about.)
If it’s good views you’re after, we’ve got you covered. Our plentiful trails serve up hikes just like mother (nature) used to make, packed with 100% Wyoming-fresh air and views that stretch on for miles.
When it comes to enjoying summer in Platte County, you’ve gotta try:
- Taking a dip in the reservoir at Sandy Beach or Shelter Point in Glendo State Park
- Stopping by for a swim at the the Sandy Beach, Sandy Point or Sandy Cove campgrounds in Guernsey State Park
- Checking off every item in our handy three-day travel guide through Platte County
- Hiking local-favorite loops in Glendo State Park, including Twenty 15 and Narrows Bluff, Slide Hill, and Two Moon, Broken Bow and Buffalo Run
- Exploring Guernsey State Park’s top-rated trails, including North Bluff, Lakeview/Marsh Mountain and Tunnel Mountain
- Taking a one-of-a-kind river float adventure down the North Platte River
Then, after a long day in the sun:
- Chill out at the state’s oldest soda fountain in Chugwater, followed by dinner with a side of live music
- Take your pick from the most delicious, down-home dinner options Glendo has to offer
- Make your way to Guernsey to grab a cold drink, enjoy a home-cooked meal or snag the best slice of pizza in town
- Head over to Hartville for a steak dinner at the oldest bar in Wyoming
- Explore Wheatland’s wide variety of locally owned eateries, serving up everything from BBQ and comfort food, to classic Mexican and American favorites
Make it a full adventure—stay the night!
