Description
Join the Tahoe Rim Trail Association (TRTA) and our trained guides on our Intermediate Fall hike series!
Leaving from the official “mile 0” along the Tahoe Rim Trail in Tahoe City, this hike meanders through groves of fir, cedar, and aspen and across open hillsides covered with manzanita. Open slopes and viewpoints offer opportunities to explore cinder cones and ancient lava flows at high vistas. The trail continues past the Lava Cliffs, a lovely overlook of Lake Tahoe and the peaks lining its north shore, and the group will hike as far as Thunder Cliffs before turning around and heading back to the trailhead. Total hike mileage is ~7 miles with about 900 ft of elevation gain. Bring your own lunch, snacks, and water, and enjoy a lovely day on trail with fellow hiking enthusiasts!
What to Expect
TRTA outings are group outings, and we do our best to keep the group together. Trip leaders dedicate much of their time throughout the year, sharing their passion for the outdoors. They are well-trained and experienced. Please respect the decisions made on the trail.
