Tahoe Meadows Loop Trail

Half a mile in elevation above lake shore is an easy, handicapped friendly hike less than two hundred feet below one of the highest mountain passes in the entire Sierra Nevada range.
Resting a little below the crest of the Mount Rose summit on Nevada State Route 431 lay a lovely, picturesque alpine meadow near timberline level. In late spring and early summer, Tahoe Meadows is awash with a kaleidoscope of colorful wildflowers and robust green grasses.
Trail terrain is largely flat unless you extend your hike to nearby alpine lakes. Then expect to do some heartier mountaineering.
