Dylan GossTahoe East Shore Trail is one of my favorite places to hike. The views are spectacular, and the hiking spot is relatively easy to get to. I miss this area quite a bit, and can only imagine how serene it looks in the winter. The other set of pictures is from my visit to Tahoe Park Beach. The sunrise there is absolutely stunning. It was nice visiting a place that was familiar to me for a few days. If anything, I wish I had been able to stay longer.
Brendan KielyThe Tahoe East Shore Trail is a nice paved trail perfect for walking or biking. The trail is about 2.5 miles long one way from the start of Incline Village to Sand Harbor State Park and offers great views of Lake Tahoe. Well worth spending an hour or two walking or hiking if in the North East shore of the lake. Overall a fairly popular paved trail and easy to walk or bike
Bahadir E.Great walkway, right by the lake. It runs for several miles and pathways also go down to the lake as well. The one thing that is a major challenge is parking, especially during the summer months. There is a tourist viewing area with parking for 20 cars and a 20 minute time limit but it's either hit or miss. I would suggest parking north at the paid parking center and making the walk, there are pathways that start there as well on the other end of the walkway for the lake shore view.
Stephen WeessiesOne of the best trails in the world in my book. I have a bad hip and the easy up and downs the trail has is easy enough for me. Very wide paths allows families to walk besides each other even with others approaching. The views simply cannot be beat. The best parking is at Sand Harbor which costs $15 out of state or $10 for Nevada residents. Up to the north just inside incline village it's by the hour parking but that part of the hike has a big hill which can be a little more work for some. Overall a great place to hike with views that cannot be beat.
Mohammed uddinAwesome place to go for a walk or even ride a bike. Every step you take you can see scenic view of Lake Tahoe . Awesome way to see each of the cove.
