Hiking at Lake Jennings

Lake Jennings offers miles and miles of great hiking trails. The hike around the lake is a relatively flat 5.5 miles, meandering around the back coves.

On the north side of the lake, you can access the old "Flume" bench, a trail that goes east approximately 5 miles, high along the ridge of El Monte Valley.

Hiking the perimeter of Lake Jennings is available during normal hours of lake operation Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Hiking around and through the Campground is available to registered campers seven days a week.

We have trails both around and through the campground area and are currently in the process of enhancing and improving the trails. The trail encircling the campground is over one mile in length with moderate elevation change. There is also a shorter trail (approximately 300 yards) within the campground of for all ages to enjoy.

At Lake Jennings, we support the local area Boy Scout troops by offering opportunities for various troop projects. We are working with a local Eagle Scout troop refurbishing and improving our trails with informative signs and a well-designated path.
