Convict Lake

Convict Lake is dog-friendly! The crystal clear lake is surrounded by the Sierra Nevada and is encircled by Convict Lake Loop Trail, a three-mile-long walk, which leashed dogs are welcome to explore. The trail meanders through open sagebrush and groves of pine and aspen and can be walked in either direction, whether it be from the parking area or the marina. Visit Website

    Wore her out

    We’ve come to Convict many times, but this was the first time we brought our puppy. We took her on a walk around the lake and let her explore the water in areas that were easy to access. There were many other pets around. Some friendly, some not. But all the owners were very responsible

    Perfect Spot For An Easy Hike

    Great place for an easy walk where you can stop along the way and enjoy the lake and the views. The wood boardwalk 1/2 way in is a nice touch.

    Beautiful And Easy 3 Mile Hike

    Convict Lake is a scenic lake known for fishing and boating. There is a nice 3 mile loop trail around the lake. our 14 year old retriever Maggie made it and enjoyed swimming in the lake. Watch out for hot asphalt in the summer. We pulled up to the ramp entrance to let Maggie out then one if us went and parked the car. We will be back!
