Donner Lake Kayak Launch
September 19, 2009
Where do you put in? If you live in Tahoe Donner you can access the lake via the Tahoe Donner private beach.
If not drive on past the Tahoe Donner Beach for a couple blocks and you will see a brown pump station on the left and a couple docks for public use – many people, including locals, put in there. Be careful not to block the bike lanes when you park – they get a lot of use from joggers and bike riders.
Others drive on down to the public boat launch ramp close to West End and launch there.
Another option is to access via Donner State Park and drive through to the China Cove Beach and put in there.
Have Fun!
