Donner Lake in Truckee CA Has Something for Everyone.


Have you ever visited Donner Lake, located in Truckee California?  This lake has a feeling of small community.  People come from all over the world to see our lake.  Truckee is a small town with a big heart.  There are lots of things to do and see while you visit our wonderful community.  #VACATION TIME.







Donner Lake has been a destination favorite by many travelers.  Wedding are very popular with all the natural beauty that surrounds the lake.  The lake is glass in the mornings with whitecaps in the afternoons.  The activities on the lake are paddle boarding, fishing, water skiing, swimming and just hanging out on a pier.  For camping information check out the website of  Donner State Memorial Park http://www.parks.ca.gov/?page_id=503

The weather is varied with the four seasons.  Right now we are experiencing the Fall colors and it is very beautiful. In the Fall the weather is approximately 61 - 80 degrees during the day.  In Summer  Donner Lake offers opportunities for camping, picnicking, boating swimming, fishing, water-skiing, and easy hiking.   In Winter with the Heavy Snow Fall it is a great place to stay and plan a Winter Vacation of Skiing, Cross Country or Down Hill, Sleding or just relaxing in nature.  One must be bundled up in appropriate clothing so to avoid Frost Bite.  Please make sure that you come prepared to the mountains with Chains for passage during the Winter
.
I walk around the lake and it takes about 2 hours if you are walking briskly.  Bike riding will take you less than 45 minutes if you don't stop to take pictures.  Most of the time when walking around the lake I allow 3 hours due to the fact of the beauty I see and want to take a picture at every vista point.

Donner Lake is the site of the Donner Lake Triathlon and they have been going strong for 31 years.   http://www.sierrasun.com/article/20120713/SPORTS/120719941
