7 Biking Trails in Lake Tahoe (Nevada) That You Shouldn't Miss
With the bluest of blue water and the greenest of green surrounding forest, Lake Tahoe, quite simply, transfixes. From the early Indians to authors such as Mark Twain, folks have tried to capture the beauty and mystique of the lake with nicknames like "Big Blue" and "Grasshopper Soup." Others maintain that it's impossible to describe the magnificence in words. At 6,225 feet above sea level, Tahoe is the highest alpine lake in the United States and has long attracted vacationers from around the world. In the summer, hiking, windsurfing, golfing, fishing and swimming (usually in wet suits due to the lake's brisk year-round temperature) are all the rage. The winter season, which actually starts around Thanksgiving, brings throngs of skiers to area resorts. Located between California and Nevada, different sides of the lake tend to attract different types of visitors. The California side draws families and outdoor enthusiasts while the Nevada side beckons those looking for big name entertainment and casinos. No matter which side you choose, a getaway to stunning Lake Tahoe will not soon be forgotten.

The new paved path is 3 miles from the intersection of Lakeshore and Hwy 28 which has 50 parking places. Terrific views of Lake Tahoe and ten vista points on the way. Give yourself an hour and half if walking and 30 minutes if biking.

We walked the trail in the evening and at that time the were only a few people on the trail. The view is amazing - as the trail is along the lake, most of the time. To find the trail head, you can search for Tunnel Creek Cafe. There are two large parking lots, off of Ponderosa Ranch road (yes, Bonanza). There are two trails - one that is up near the hills behind the Cafe and one you want that is paved, down from the cafe, next to the highway. There is a port-a-potty near the trail head. You walk along the road for a short time and then the trail leads you up the hill with the forest on the left and the highway/lake on the right. There are small pop outs all along the trail with quotes and explanations of the flora/fauna/etc of the area. After less than a mile, you walk through a tunnel to get to the other side of the highway where the trail continues. (There is also a bathroom there.) You walk on this part of the trail for almost 2 more miles and all along the way are paths that take you down to the lake with several little beaches. The walk is easy and paved and again, absolutely beautiful! We would definetly do this walk again.
