Trails: The park trail system of approximately 65 miles includes a 26-mile portion of the Pacific Crest Trail, utilizing for the most part former fire roads and trails. Other short, but frequently used hiking trails are the 2.3-mile Mount Scott Trail, the 1.7-mile Garfield Peak Trail, the 0.8-mile trail to Watchman Peak, the Lake Trail leading 1.1 miles to Cleetwood Cove, the 1.5-mile Discovery Point Trail, the 1.2-mile trail to Wizard Island Crater, and the 0.5-mile Castle Crest Trail which has been developed as a self-guided nature trail.
Picnic Areas: There are six designated picnic areas around the rim. These are provided with tables, waste receptacles, pit toilets, and parking for a total of 149 cars. A larger picnic area is available in the Rim Village, equipped with comfort stations, water, picnic tables, waste receptacles, and fire grilles. There are also three picnic areas on the south approach road.
Campgrounds: Two campgrounds provide 210 campsites. The former Rim Village Campground has been converted to a day-use picnic area. Lost Creek Campground has 12 primitive campsites with water and a single toilet comfort station provided.
Mazama Campground, with 198 sites, is located just north of the south entrance in the Annie Springs area. There is a small, portable registration kiosk at the campground entrance. The sites are distributed around seven loops, each containing a modern comfort station. A 500-seat rear-screen projection amphitheater is used for evening interpretive programs. A sanitary dump station for recreational vehicles is located near the campground entrance.
Boat Tours: The concessioner owns and operates four 60-passenger tour launches which provide two-hour tours around the lake. The lakeshore terminus at Cleetwood Cove contains two floating docks, small ticket sales counter, a manually operated gas storage tank, and two chemical toilets. A USGS water gauging station is located a short distance west of the landing. There are no electrical, water, or sewage treatment facilities at Cleetwood Landing. Development on Wizard Island is limited to a small boat landing, two concession-owned boat houses, two chemical toilets for visitor use, and the trail to the top of Wizard Crater. In the winter the four launches are stored in the boat houses and the floating docks are moored in a cove on the west side of the island. There are no utility systems on Wizard Island.
