The Byers Lake is a small lake in Denali State Park in Alaska (USA).
The lake is named after a fisherman who was brought there several times in the 1950s by the well-known bush pilot Donald E. Sheldon. Byers Lake is located approximately 45 km north of Talkeetna and is accessible from the George Parks Highway . In addition to a campsite, there are several huts and a boat dock here. Only row boats and boats with electric motors are permitted on Byers Lake. A hiking trail leads around the lake and partially runs over plank planks and two small bridges. Salmon also come into the lake via the inflow. However, salmon fishing is not allowed.
