Kayaking Grant Lake

Grant Lake, located near the northern entrance to the June Lake Loop, is the largest and most diverse of the four lakes along Highway 158. The landscape changes dramatically between the northern and southern ends, with a striking difference in topography compared to the other lakes.

Scenic views, abundant wildlife, and close proximity to the other June Lake attractions make Grant an excellent retreat. Despite its size, the lake sees minimal boat traffic and is often deserted, except during occasional fishing contests.

Grant Lake boasts excellent fishing, camping, and water sports like waterskiing and wakeboarding. A strict 10 mph speed limit before 10 am creates ideal conditions for early morning trout fishing, a local specialty. After 10 am, the lake opens up to faster watercraft, offering opportunities for water skiing, jet skiing, and other recreational activities.

Whether you prefer to paddle a kayak, canoe, or stand-up paddleboard, a trip to Grant Lake and the surrounding June Lake Loop is a must for summer adventurers. The diverse natural landscapes, abundance of wildlife, and varied water sports make it a premier destination for outdoor enthusiasts.
