Donner Lake – A favorite place among those in the know!

Appealing to both families and second homeowners, Donner Lake offers a public boat ramp, public docks and a public beach. Besides all the fun of swimming, sailing, water skiing, and fishing, this area provides great adventures for rock climbers.  Historians as well as outdoorsmen enjoy this area for its landmarks (Historic China Wall and Rainbow Bridge built in 1925) and beauty (bordered by the Donner Memorial State Park on the east and Donner Summit on the west). Donner Lake’s beauty and location has made it a Truckee favorite.
