The 30-mile Lewis River rises in southern part of Yellowstone National Park and flows into Snake River.

Lewis River is popular for fly-fishing and wildlife watching. Since it runs along the southern end of the road between South Entrance and West Thumb, many Yellowstone park visitors get to enjoy scenic views along the road.

Lewis Lake, also a popular fishing spot, is the third largest lake in Yellowstone. Lewis Falls near the lake feature a 29-foot drop and can be seen from the road.
