It's always fun to stop by Highland Lakes. Take a hike on the Burnside Lake Trail. Be careful coming to the Northern Sierra Nevada, you might not ever wanna go home again. Bear Tree Meadow is a magnificent place to check out; why not take a refreshing hike along the Charity Valley Trail. This lake is so wonderful. If you need a place to stay Creekside Lodge is a delightful choice; a tremendous spot to camp here at Highland Lakes is Highland Lakes Campground.

| | The best way to spend a winter day is on the slopes of nearby Dodge Ridge, and the Pacific Crest Trail - section 13 offers hiking at its best. All the water falling down from the sky makes Highland Lakes a wet site; the month of January is the wettest with most of the snow; July on the other hand is the driest. You think that's sufficient? Just getting warmed up. In the event that you don’t have a problem getting wet, you can always go whitewater paddling on Carson | |
