The New Hogan Lake Recreation Area offers a convenient boat ramp for kayakers, canoeists, and other small watercraft enthusiasts. Situated in the Sierra Nevada foothills near the historic gold rush towns, the lake provides a scenic setting for a variety of water-based activities.
The boat ramp is part of the larger Fiddleneck Recreation area, which features multiple launch sites around the lake. With 250 parking spaces for vehicles with trailers, the area can accommodate a high volume of boaters. Three boarding floats and carry-down walkways make it easy to launch and load your vessel.
For those looking to extend their visit, there are several reservable campgrounds within 10 miles of the recreation area, including Oak Knoll Campground, Deer Flat Boat In Campground, and Acorn Campground. The large surface area of New Hogan Lake allows for a range of boating activities, from fishing to water skiing and wakeboarding. Anglers can target species such as stripers, bass, crappie, bluegill, and catfish.
