5 Things to Add to Your North Lake Tahoe Bucket List

1. Stand-Up Paddleboarding

Did you know that Lake Tahoe is the No. 1 spot for stand-up paddleboarding in the United States? When you see the lake for yourself, youâll know why. The crystal-clear waters of Lake Tahoe allow you to see straight to the bottom of the lake, giving you the most amazing view of the lakebed. Donât miss out on this unique opportunity while youâre here! Watermans Landing and Kings Beach are a couple of our favorite places for stand-up paddleboarding in Lake Tahoe.

2. Speedboat Beach

More beautiful views of Lake Tahoe await at Speedboat Beach. This small neighborhood beach is tucked away from more popular beachfronts, making it the perfect place for a quiet morning, afternoon, or evening, by the waterâs edge. Here, you can take in beautiful views of Lake Tahoe and large rock formations that rest in the water.

3. Eagle Lake Trail

After youâve had your fix of exploring the lake, head to dry land for more adventure. One of our favorite Lake Tahoe hiking trails can be found at Eagle Lake. This 1.9-mile out-and-back trail leads you up a stone staircase, over waterfalls at about the halfway point, and through a forested area. At one point during the hike, the path leads to a Desolation Wilderness, which requires a special permit to explore.

4. Discover Hidden Bike Paths

Take the road less traveled on the areaâs hidden bike paths. These lesser-known paths are a great place to take in the beauty of our area without the crowds that you typically see on more popular trails.

One of our favorites is the Sand Harbor Bike Path, also known as the East Shore Trail. This three-mile paved path runs alongside the lake. We donât recommend bringing dogs along because the ground gets hot from the sun there isnât much shade.

The Truckee River Bike Path is another fantastic option. This trail used to be the Tahoe-Truckee Toll Road in the late 1800s. It features little incline, making it the perfect option for riders of all skill levels.

You can also rent an electric mountain bike from E-Bikes in Kings Beach! Renting one of these bikes is a great way to traverse paths that might otherwise be too challenging.
