Folsom Lake State Recreation Area

Welcome to California's beautiful Folsom Lake State Recreation Area located outside of Folsom, California next to the foothills of the Sierra Nevada Mountains. Here one can come out and spend a day on the lake or explore a 32 mile paved mutlipurpose trail which connects this park to other nearby recreation areas. Lake Natoma has a strictly enforced 5MPH speed limit but on Folsom Lake boats can go much faster.
