This is a great hike and leads to a beautiful swimming lake during the summer that includes small cabins and a great snack store. If you go high enough on the trail (past the store), you can see an Angora Lake, Fallen Leaf Lake and Lake Tahoe all from your vista point.

Favorite Waterfalls
This is one of our favorite places in Tahoe but it cannot be accessed during snow season. Glen Alpine Falls is one of the best falls that, most of the year, you can actually climb on. Easy to get to. The Lake also has a great snack bar with the best milkshakes and a perfect deck for sitting and reviewing the lake. It's a tricky road to drive in but well worth it.

The Upper Truckee Falls are beautiful in the Spring but get smaller mid-June. From our home, go past the inspection station on Highway 50 and turn left onto South Upper Truckee Road. Drive until you reach the right turn for the Hawley Grade Recreational Trail. Choose to park here and walk the .3-mile to the falls (you may also drive); the main hike is to the right – go left for the falls and the Upper Truckee River.

Google these falls for the best advice based on the season. Without snow, it is a super easy walk from the road. Located at Emerald Bay - you can see those gorgeous sites and the falls all at once! This is a favorite sunrise locations for photographers and people who just love to be up that early!
