    The beauty of Donkey Lake is reason enough to stop by. Not enough hours in a day to enjoy the Central Sierra Nevada. Mount Thompson is scenic and can be seen from Donkey Lake, and a journey to Devils Postpile National Monument is recommended. There's so much to do here at Donkey Lake that you need to camp here for a while, Sabrina Campground is a brilliant place for that; don't forget to take a glorious little tour to Darwin Creek. Now, you may believe that's  
   a heap but there's even more fun stuff to do here at Donkey Lake. Take a hike on the Kings River Trail, and you simply should pop by Powell Glacier since you're here at Donkey Lake.
All the outdoors entertaining things in the Central Sierra Nevada will keep you coming back persistently. If you need a place to stay Super 8 Motel - Bishop is a tremendous choice; get your pulse rate up on the nice whitewater of San Joaquin River - South Fork. Donkey Lake
