Nimbus Flat, Rancho Cordova: paddleboard and kayak launch

Nimbus Flat, Rancho Cordova: launch details

Nimbus Flat sits on Lake Natoma, the cool, calm reservoir below Folsom Dam, where a 5 mph motor limit keeps the water glassy. It is home to the Sacramento State Aquatic Center, which rents boards and boats. A paved bike trail runs the length of the lake, and Negro Bar is another nearby put-in. $12 parking, no additional launch fee.
