Vee Lake Trailhead/Campground
Vee Lake Trailhead/Campground is a ending point for the southern segment Fremont National Recreation Trail in the North Warner Mountains. The trailhead is located one hour 15 minutes northeast of Lakeview, Oregon. The site overlooks Hart Mountain National Wildlife Refuge on the edge of the high desert.
The trailhead offers two camping sites and one vault toilet that are maintained during the open season.
The mixed forest features ponderosa pine, white fir, and some aspen stands. Vee Lake is stocked with rainbow trout, and there is a launch for electric motor boats and canoes. One unique feature of Vee Lake is an earthen, man-made dam on which one can walk around.
