Situated amidst towering pines, Alpine Lake is an ideal retreat for outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy paddling or just relaxing on the water and taking in the amazing views. What many people don’t realize is that the view is even more beautiful when you get on the water.

This superb paddling getaway is one of the most picturesque lakes in Northern California. Dotted with sheltered coves, the lake is the perfect place to swim, fish, and paddle.

The lake is home to a plethora of birds and wildlife. Kayaks, paddle boards and canoes are the perfect watercraft for viewing critters in their natural habitat. Abundant wildlife sightings, magical vistas and varied activities for outdoor enthusiasts make it a popular getaway during the peak summer months. The best time to visit is in May and in October.

The lake lies nestled in a timbered setting, just east of the community of Bear Valley on State Highway 4. This is the place to go if you want to experience a remote paddling retreat. If you’re planning your trip to California, you won’t want to miss this excellent destination for paddling.

Alpine Lake is a particularly nice place to paddle for all skill levels of paddlers, from the novice to the expert.
