SOuth Lake Kayaking
  

South Lake is both convenient and gorgeous. Surrounded by jagged mountain and rocky valleys, South Lake is located in the middle of the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountain range, in the Inyo National Forest, making it a top destination for kayak lovers. The sparkling blue water and its steep mountain slopes, speckled with pine forests, provide a spectacular backdrop while paddling.

After a day of paddling, there’s an abundance of hiking trails in the area to explore. If hiking isn’t your cup of tea, you can take a guided horseback ride in the backcountry. Another spectacular feature of South Lake is the abundant wildlife. Encounters with deer, bald eagles, bobcats, pine martens, marmots and even bears can make the outdoors experience unforgettable.

If you’re searching for a scenic lake with rugged mountain views, remarkable wildlife encounters and exquisite kayak fishing, then this is the lake to plan your next trip to in Central California. South Lake is located in a tranquil area with amazing vistas for superb kayak fishing opportunities in the summer.

South Lake is 22-miles west of Bishop, resting at 9,768 feet of elevation. It not only offers outstanding kayak fishing opportunities; it also includes some of the most scenic lake and forest vistas anywhere in California, making it a popular destination for kayak anglers in recent years. Fishing from a kayak offers a level of stealth that simply can’t be achieved with a regular motor boat. South Lake offers you breathtaking views, and cold mountain water loaded with quality trout.
