Truckee Bike Park

Reviewed By Journey16429445878 - San Francisco, United States

Easily one of the best bike parks anywhere. You can see the care and attention that has gone into crafting this place. Lines for everyone from beginner to the advanced rider. A "must visit" when in town if you are into bikes.

Truckee River Bike Trail

Not too challenging, and good for the entire family. Great way to bike from Squaw into town, have lunch, visit Commons beach and bike back again.

A stroll along the river before dinner, well worth taking the time to relax and feel nature. There is no difficulty to this paved path.

Incline Village to Sand Harbor Bike Path

Reviewed By davidhV8108PG - Incline Village, United States

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.

Tahoe East Shore Trail

Reviewed By tinaNtravel - San Jose, United States

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.
