Spring Meadow Lake State Park

Located on the western edge of Helena, this 30-acre spring fed man made lake is noted for its clarity and depth. This urban, day-use-only park minutes from Helena fed by natural springs, is a popular spot for family afternoons of swimming, sunbathing, scuba diving, fishing, birdwatching, and pure play.

Spring Meadow Lake State Park encompassing 61.1 acres includes a .8 mile, self guided nature trail that circles the lake. The park is home to a variety of birds, turtles and other wildlife and has had trout, bass and sunfish introduced to its waters. There is a fishing ramp for mobility impaired anglers. In winter, you can still stroll along the trail and, if it's cold enough, ice-skate on the lake. Special events are held periodically during the year to promote the park's natural assets.

Spring Meadow Lake State Park is located from Helena, on Montana Highway 12 west, north on Joslyn to Country Club Avenue.
