Tips from locals
Donner Lake is a beautiful little lake, totally different from Lake Tahoe and every bit as fun to visit. The state park is a great way to see it. Bring towels, a picnic, and a dog if you have one.
Pack a picnic or pick up some burritos and spend a day swimming, paddling and hiking at beautiful Donner Lake. Visit the new Emigrant Trail Museum at the entrance of the State Park to learn about the harrowing experiences of the Donner Party.
