Donner Lake Boat Ramp

This public boat ramp on Donner Lake's northwest shore features a 2-lane launch facility with 30 parking spaces for vehicles with trailers, a fish cleaning station, restrooms, and a carry-down walkway accommodating boats 18-30 feet long.

The facility is staffed and open May-September, with self-service access available October-April; daily passes cost $15 for CA residents ($30 out-of-state) or $125 for a season pass.

All watercraft require a mandatory self-inspection sticker before launching, and boating is subject to speed limits (35 mph max, 10 mph after sunset) and counter-clockwise travel requirements.
