Little Grass Valley Reservoir is a perfect
paddling getaway, whether it’s your first
time paddling adventure or your
one-hundredth one. The campsites are nestled
among towering pines and are spaced widely
apart from each other, which provides plenty
of privacy. The designated swimming areas
located at Running Deer and Little Beaver
Campgrounds have beautiful white sandy
beaches.
Little Grass Valley Reservoir provides an
abundance of outdoor recreation experiences
for visitors. Black-tailed deer, black bear,
marmots, beaver, and bald eagles are found
throughout the recreation area. Three boat
launch ramps provide access to the water for
fishing, kayaking, water-skiing, sailing, or
canoeing. Two swim beaches provide excellent
swimming and picnicking opportunities.
The Lakeshore Trail, which loops 14.5-miles
around the lake, is available for hiking,
mountain biking and horseback riding. The
trail connects to the Pacific Crest National
Scenic Trail, which stretches from 2,650-miles from Canada to Mexico, across three
states. A variety of day hikes can be done
on portions of the trail.
Little Grass Valley Reservoir is not easy to
get to, but once you arrive, you’ll
 discover
superb kayaking, fishing,hiking, and camping
opportunities on this good-sized lake
located high up in the Sierras.
