Steeped in emigrant history, Donner Memorial
State Park remembers the story of the ill-fated
passage of the Donner Party in 1846. Where
stranded and hopeless settlers once fought starvation
in winter's isolated reaches, today's travelers, eager
to explore, find an informative museum and
information on emigrant history, the construction of
the transcontinental railroad, lumber, and ice
Harvesting industries. Camping, picnicking, hiking,
boating, fishing, and waterskiing -- all surrounded by
magnificent alpine scenery.
