Catch a Sunset at Donner Lake
Added by The Outbound Collective
Post up on the dock with your friends and get some sun. Catch the sun disappear over the mountains. Duration: <1 hour.
In the northwest corner of Donner Lake, there are public docks run by the Truckee Donner Recreation & Parks district. It's free to lay out your towels and hang out, but there is a fee for launching boats on the ramp. Come over in the late afternoon, enjoy the sunset, and go for a swim as the sun goes down!

Great lake to stop at
We've stopped her a bunch of times. It's on the way to the north of Tahoe, truckee area where a lot of campsites are. Nice place to stope to break up a long drive
