  Great history if you stop at rhe museum. The self-guided tour has so much to learn from. The free tour with the park ranger was even more informative and brought history to life. Go up the road and climb by the bridge after.

  A beautiful place to visit. It is $10 per car. One person here mentioned avoiding paying the money and parking on the left and using the trails but there is a ranger that goes through the cars and you will be ticketed if you do not have a pass in your windshield. The museum is informative and eye-opening to the experiences people had coming to California. The trails are enjoyable to walk around with beautiful creeks near the campground. We then took a trail to Donner Lake and sat on some picnic tables while the kids fished. Was about a two hour visit and much enjoyed our time there

  Its only fitting that we memorialize a few of the hardships these people and that group went through to endure and secure our future's legacy. We have absolutely zero idea what Hard Times truly are. Those early settlers pressed forward, just on word alone. They had no idea what they were getting into. Thank God they did. The gold rush came shortly thereafter, and California was born. The west was unknown at that time. They pulled wagons past roughly 20 feet of snow, through narrow canyons, and up over cliffs in search of a better tomorrow. We forget just how lucky we are, while we play video games, hop in our vehicles and get our food from grocery stores; just to name a few things we take for granted...

  A quick tour of the museum was good! It was small and lots of reading but interesting. What an awful thing they went through! There's a gift shop and a small movie theater with a donner party video running every hour or so. It was about 25 minutes long. Admission for the park and museum were the same $10.
