The Only Place to Actually Access Crater Lake
Cleetwood Cove Trail的点评
点评：Whether you want to get to the lake's shore or board a boat to tour around it, this is the only path to the lake's surface. Unfortunately, it is closed until 2028 as the NPS rebuilds the path, and while the trail will be missed, the most unfortunate part of the next 3 years is no access to the lake. However, when it does reopen, this will be a "Must See" attraction to get to the lake.
We visited Crater Lake with two other couples and despite some of the trauma caused by its return up, this was one of our favorite activities in the park. The water is cold but amazingly clear and here you can wade into it as this shore is one of the only shallow parts to the lake. Again, our boat tour and swim in the lake were two of our favorite experiences in the park.
As for the trail itself, it is a mile down and more importantly a mile back up with 613 feet of elevation gain. If you hike often, those numbers are hardly intimidating. However, as the only access to the lake, many people hike this trail that don't hike other vertical stretches which is why you see all the traumatic comments. Be honest with yourself before you go and pace accordingly. Looking at my photos, it took us 28 minutes to hike down and 26 minutes to hike up. We took too many pictures going down and we exited the lake with rumbling thunder nearby. I hike often and the return hike was not that bad other than the thunder in the distance.
My only negative is not the hike up, but the fact that the trail and more importantly, the parking are so crowded since this is the only place you can access the lake. Please understand this also when you visit. We were not able to park in the adjacent lot but rather on the side of the road further up the hill. Start planning for 2028, because it truly is amazing to actually access the lake and this is the only place to do it.

翻译：无论您是想走到湖边，还是想乘船环湖游览，这条路都是通往湖面的唯一通道。可惜的是，由于国家公园管理局 (NPS) 正在重建这条步道，它将关闭至 2028 年。虽然这条步道的关闭令人惋惜，但未来三年最令人难过的是无法亲近湖泊。不过，一旦重新开放，这里必将成为前往湖泊的“必游之地”。
我们和另外两对夫妇一起游览了火山口湖。尽管步道重建带来了一些不便，但这仍然是我们在公园里最喜欢的活动之一。湖水冰冷，但清澈见底，而且这里是湖边为数不多的浅水区之一，您可以涉水而行。再次强调，乘船游览和在湖中游泳是我们此次公园之旅中最美好的体验。
至于步道本身，它向下延伸一英里，更重要的是，向上延伸一英里，海拔上升 613 英尺。如果您经常徒步旅行，这些数字对您来说应该不算什么。然而，由于这是通往湖泊的唯一途径，许多不走其他垂直路段的人都会选择这条步道，这就是为什么你会看到那么多令人沮丧的评论。出发前一定要诚实地评估自己的能力，并根据情况调整节奏。从我的照片来看，我们下山花了28分钟，上山花了26分钟。下山途中我们拍了太多照片，离开湖边时附近雷声隆隆。我经常徒步，除了远处雷声之外，回程的路程并没有那么糟糕。
我唯一不满的地方不是上山，而是步道，更重要的是停车场，因为这是通往湖泊的唯一入口，所以非常拥挤。请各位游客在前往之前也考虑到这一点。我们没能停在旁边的停车场，只能停在山坡上更远处的路边。不妨开始计划2028年的行程吧，因为能够真正到达湖边绝对是一件令人惊叹的事情，而且这里是唯一的入口。
