Antelope Island State Park, situated in the Great Salt Lake, offers expansive views and diverse wildlife, including a free-roaming herd of bison. With several hiking trails, visitors can explore scenic routes year-round, although fall and winter provide a more comfortable experience. The park features amenities like picnic areas, restrooms, and a visitor center, which provides information on local ecology and geology. Stargazing is exceptional here due to low light pollution, making it a popular destination for astrophotographers and night sky enthusiasts. Be mindful in summer, as biting insects can be a nuisance. Camping is available, but reservations are recommended.
