Traveling Through Nebraska: Lake Ogallala State Recreation Area
Located in Keith County, west-central Nebraska, USA, approximately 6 miles south of the city of Big Springs and around 165 miles west of the city of Grand Island, lies the beautiful and expansive Lake Ogallala State Recreation Area. The recreation area encompasses an area of about 4,787 acres, surrounding Lake McConaughy's eastern reaches and two adjacent wetlands, Carter Point and Duck Creek. Operated by the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission, the park offers exclusive access to its shore as well as areas farther east, catering predominantly to wildlife enthusiasts, fishermen and those with passion for gliding across calm lake waters.
Established to protect diverse wildlife habitats within the Platte River system's watersheds, the park plays an essential role in ensuring the long-term preservation of Western, Wood-draw and other wetland habitats. Waterfowl hunters visit in great numbers during seasonal months when water geese, field mallards and tree geese build winter nests along the tranquil reaches of wet banks around both the Platte and central park areas. There's excellent wildlife watching as great masses of bird congregate to temporarily nest near wetlands.
