Alumni Reunion Tour: Tahoe Meadows to Tunnel Creek

July 20, 2023 @ 7:00 am - 3:00 pm


Cost: Free

TRTA Guided Alumni Hike

Description

We are getting the band back together! As part of our inaugural Alumni Reunion Series, the Tahoe Rim Trail Association (TRTA) calls all past TRTA guided Thru Hike, Segment Hike, and Taste of the TRT alumni to get back on the trail. Take a jaunt through Chickadee Ridge and Diamond Peak as we hike an entire segment from Tahoe Meadows to the bottom of Tunnel Creek Rd. Take a hike with us and reunite with old friends and your favorite guides!

This hike will meet at the Tunnel Creek Station in southern Incline Village- the gateway to Tunnel Creek Rd., Flume Trail, and Tahoe East Shore Trail. Participants are then shuttled to Tahoe Meadows for a 12.5-mile hike back to the meeting location using the Tahoe Rim Trail and Tunnel Creek Rd. Click here to view Tunnel Creek Station parking fees through the Park Tahoe Program. Street parking may be available on Tahoe Blvd opposite of lake. There is no street parking available on the lakeside.
