This is about 15 mins south of Mammoth Lakes, off of the 395 and there is a resort, a restaurant with delicious food and a beautiful lake with dramatic views of the sheer rock cliffs. The trail takes you all around the lake and it's an easy 2.5 mile stroll for the whole loop. It gets windy in the afternoon so make sure that you have layers.

This is a great dining option if it's late at night and you don't feel like cooking. Their pizza is delish, and so are their pasta options.
