George Wyth State Park is one of northeast Iowa's premier outdoor recreation destinations. Spanning more than 1,200 acres, the park features a network of scenic lakes, forests, wetlands, and prairies connected by miles of both paved and soft trails. Whether you're looking for adventure or a peaceful afternoon outdoors, there's something for every season.
Visitors can kayak, canoe, or paddleboard on the park's lakes, cast a line for bass, bluegill, and catfish, relax at designated swimming beaches, or explore miles of paved and natural-surface trails by foot or bicycle. The park also offers campgrounds, picnic shelters, playgrounds, wildlife viewing, and excellent birdwatching opportunities.
Over 15 different soft trails provide extraordinary views of nature and wildlife. These off road trails are used for biking, hiking, running, skiing and wildlife viewing. View soft trail map at https://www.cvast.org/cvast-map
