There are many ways to experience and enjoy Lake Tahoe in the summer, from sunbathing on the beaches to splashing in the lake’s crystal clear waters. For those looking to hike, bike or take their equine friends into the woods, there are hundreds of miles of trails in and around the basin.
Nothing beats one of Tahoe’s more well-known trails, the Tahoe Rim Trail, a 165+ mile single- track trail that takes users across alpine ridgelines, through wildflower meadows, and ancient forests, and to pristine high alpine lakes.
