Itinerary description

|
Show original
Easy Ride around Emerarld Bay, a beautiful bay formed in the southern part of Lake Tahoe. It is one of the most famous trails in Lake Tahoe, and you can do both walking and running, given the slight unevenness and good road conditions.

The full tour is about 20km round trip, but for lack of time we could only complete the first part, which runs through the Esmeralda Bay. The views of the bay are beautiful, the trail, properly marked, runs through a dense forest of conifers.
