Cave Rock
4.8
( 8 reviews )

1430 Hwy 50, Glenbrook, NV 89413, United States

“Don’t miss this gem! Cave Rock in South Lake Tahoe is a hiking experience that should not be missed. With its moderate difficulty level, stunning views of Lake Tahoe, snowy mountain backdrop, and the thrilling rocky section, it offers us a memorable adventure. Just keep in mind the limited parking situation and plan accordingly. Whether we're avid hikers or simply looking for a picturesque stroll, this trail is sure to leave a lasting impression. Towards the end of the trail, there is a rocky section that adds an element of excitement and adventure. It requires a bit more careful footing and navigation, but the reward is well worth it. The rocky terrain leads to a unique vantage point where we could witness the grandeur of the surroundings up close. Once on the trail, the stunning panoramic views quickly capture your attention. As we made our way along the path, we were treated to breathtaking vistas of the glistening Lake Tahoe. The crystal-clear waters against the backdrop of snowy mountains created a picture-perfect scene that left us in awe. It was truly a photographer's paradise.”

High Camp

Olympic Valley, CA 96146, United States

“The trails off of High Camp can be mixed and matched to provide a customized hike. Trails include single track and service roads with a variety of terrain. I hiked to the top of Palisades peak, 4.5 miles out and back. Great views of Tahoe and surrounding area.”

Stevens Trail Parking
4.6
( 10 reviews )
Closed until 06:30 AM

Dwight D. Eisenhower Hwy, Colfax, CA 95713, United States

“Went on a Monday morning about 7am. Parking lot empty. Finished hike at 11 and parking lot was full. There's about 10-15 parking spots. Trail is gorgeous now in April with all the wild flowers blooming. Waterfall is flowing strong! It's starting to heat up so definitely bring water for that trek back up!”

Granite Flat Campground
3.8
( 8 reviews )

8898-8904 River Rd, Truckee, CA 96161, United States

“I love this campground. The location is only about 1.5 miles south of the lovely town of Truckee with great restaurants, super hardware store, SaveMart groceries, and a new Grocery Outlet. Want a cold beer, firewood, ice, or forgot the eggs? You just have to drive a mile and a half to Truckee. A beautiful 12 mile drive takes you to the world famous Lake Tahoe where you will also find amazing amenities including a wonderful North Tahoe Arts gallery and store with works by local artisans. Be sure to hike the spectacular Rubicon trail which starts at the D.L. Bliss Campground. Granite Flats Campground does have the "traffic noise" and I do recommend you not stay in the sites along the road. Plan ahead or check for cancellations or go in the middle of the week so you can reserve the sites that are NOT #7, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, 19, 21, 23, 47, 49, 51, 53, 67, or 68. If you are desperate and have strong ear plugs then be forewarned that those sites are basically the frontage road for HWY 89. hahaha. The camp host, Scott, is very dedicated and works hard many hours beyond his contracted job hours in an effort to make sure each campsite is clean for the next reservation. PLEASE people, pick up your cigarette butts, pistachio nut shells, bottle caps, dental floss, and crumpled up foil. These do not belong in the fire pit either. The hard working camp host takes pride in his work and I see him bending over picking up some campers dental floss on the ground and I am sad that some campers are not more considerate. The warning that there are bears is genuine but there are very strong and large metal bear containers provided.If you are staying in the hot days you might want a shade structure to place over the hot metal food storage box. Keep food and scented items out of your car and tent. One of my photos is of a bear in the Granite Flat Campground in August 2020. Remember that bears don't see very well but have a keen sense of smell . . . and are smarter than you think . . . Don't sleep in your tent with marshmallow spilled on your clothes. hahaha. Three stars for road noise, no showers, and pit toilets but seven stars for Lake Tahoe proximity location, great camp host, and riverfront. Enjoy your stay!”
