Folsom Lake State Recreation Area

Folsom Lake State Recreation Area offers a popular boat ramp for launching kayaks, canoes, and small motorized boats onto Folsom Lake. The Granite Bay boat ramp provides easy access to this large reservoir, which is ideal for a variety of water sports.

Folsom Lake is a calm, clear lake that makes for an inviting paddling destination. Its protected waters are well-suited for exploring by kayak or canoe. The boat ramp area has paved parking and easy access to the shoreline, though visitors should wear appropriate shoes for the rocky terrain.

To ensure the boat ramp is open and operational, it's recommended to contact the Folsom Lake State Recreation Area directly before your visit. The park can be reached at (916) 988-0205 or pubinfo@parks.ca.gov. Visitors should also be aware of any current conditions or advisories that may impact access or recreation on the lake.
