Lake Alpine is a local lake approx. 15 minutes from Bear Valley.
Information
Lake Alpine is a sizeable Sierra lake, featuring granite islands surrounded by high peaks and deep forests. It features a paved bicycle and walking trail, making access enjoyable for all abilities. The area houses a rustic mountain lodge with restaurant and cabins, five campgrounds, and picnic sites. Fishing, kayaking, canoeing and swimming are enjoyed during the summer months. Extensive site access improvements were made by the US Forest Service. The elevation of the lake is 7,300 feet (2,225 meters). There are campgrounds located on the northwest end of the lake and on the southeast side of the lake. The forest service has developed day use picnic areas that are located on the north side of the lake. These areas have barbecues and picnic tables. You can swim but the water does not warm up until the middle of August. There is a boat launching ramp (no fee is charged for boat launching) across from the lodge with plenty of parking. The speed limit on the lake is 10 mph (16 kph). The Lake Alpine Lodge is located on the north side of the lake. The lodge opens on Memorial Day and closes for the season around the end of September or first of October. There is a winter closure gate about 1/2 mile west of the lodge on Highway 4. The road closes at the first snow.
