Welcome to the best kept
secret in the Sierra Nevada
The Shaver Basin
This is a year around vacation paradise. Bring the family or that someone special and come fish in a variety of spots where the scenery is as enticing as the outdoor recreational opportunities.

Geographically, this untapped mecca sits between the Yosemite and King's Canyon/Sequoia National Parks. Herein lie the Dinkey Creek, Kaiser, John Muir and Ansel Adams Wilderness areas as well as the Pacific Crest Trail and John Muir Trail. Here you'll see majestic falls, giant Sequoias at McKinley Grove and unique granite rock formations.

Travellers from Southern California will find this Sierra jewel as close as many of the popular Eastern Sierra vacation spots, but far less crowded. Visitors from the Monterey Penninsula will have a leisurely four to five hour drive, depending upon their final destination.

Sightseeing abounds in the summer months and there is plenty to experience during the winter months as well. Events include High Sierra Sailing Regattas, Fourth of July Fireworks, a Logging Jamboree, Fishing Derbys, Mountain Blues Festival, Shaver Lake Triathlon, Mountain Bike Race and Rumble to the Summit.
