LAKE TAHOE WATERFALL GUIDE
With lots of snow still in the mountains, the waterfalls around Lake Tahoe will be flowing strong this summer! Here are a few top recommendations for Lake Tahoe waterfalls:
Cascade Falls is probably one of the best short hikes you can do in the Emerald Bay area. This hike is only 1.5 miles round trip. This is one of the most popular hikes in the area, so parking will be difficult.
Glen Alpine Falls is a great destination that is a little off the beaten path. Both the upper and lower falls here offer an up-close experience with the rushing water. The upper falls is a one mile, round trip hike where the falls drop about 30 feet. The lower falls are more impressive, plummeting about 60 feet down the step-like rocks. The best part of the lower falls is that there is virtually no hike to get there. Simply park and stroll down to the already visible rushing waters.
Upper Eagle Falls an easy, half-mile round trip hike is one of the most popular in the area and excellent for any level of hiker. The falls themselves are only about 25 feet, however, rewarding nonetheless. Get there as soon as possible as the parking lot fills quickly.
Lower Eagle Falls is a slightly more difficult hike than the upper falls, but a much bigger reward! A moderate, 2.1 mile round trip hike will bring you down to the water level of Emerald Bay on a well-maintained trail. The water here cascades down about 150 feet and is really impressive. Check out the Vikingsholm Castle while down there, too. The return hike can be difficult so be careful, as it is a steep climb back up the path.
