Paddle around June Lake for a day of fishing
or just to take in the amazing mountain
scenery. At sunrise, spectacular reflective
views of massive, colorful mountain peaks
are cast onto the calm, glass-like water
surface of June Lake. Why anyone would
prefer to paddle at another time of day is
beyond me. This superb paddling destination
offers recreation for the entire family in a
magnificent high alpine setting.
Summer brings both recreational paddlers,
enjoying an invigorating day on the water
and kayak anglers, trying to hook a trophy
size trout. Rent a canoe, kayak or boat from
one of the many local rental companies and
have a great time.
The “Oh
Ridge” Campground is located on the
northeastern shoreline overlooking June
Lake. Be sure to call far in advance for
reservations, especially if you plan a trip
here on a holiday summer weekend.
It’s no surprise why June Lake is a top
kayak angling destination with the
breathtaking surrounding views; the perfect
number of miles of shoreline distance for
paddling; and the large amount of rainbow
trout planted by both the Department of Fish
and Game and Alper’s Ranch hatcheries each
year. June Lake is also stocked with
trophy-sized Alpers trout and there are also
a few browns, brook and cutthroat trout here
too.
There
are so many things to do for the whole
family, from kayaking to boating, to paddle
boarding, to canoeing. This is a “must see”
paddling get-away that you don’t want to
miss.
