Fumarole Bay
Crater Lake National Park's Cleetwood Cove Trail, the only path to the lake, will be closed for construction from 2026 to 2029, according to the National Park Service. As a result, there will be no access to the lake during the 2026, 2027, and 2028 summer seasons; effectively closing access to Wizard Island.

Notes
Rocky trail along the shore of Wizard Island. Becomes hard to follow after reaching Fumarole Bay. The shallow, clear water is good for fishing and swimming.
