Open late Spring to early Fall. Scenic trail along the water that connects DL Bliss and Emerald Bay. Option to do a smaller loop for a less extensive hike. $10 parking. Just under a 30 minute drive to DL Bliss State Park

One of the most scenic walks/hikes in Tahoe! Stunning views of the lake the entire way. Start at the D.L. Bliss State Park in South Lake and walk as far as you want along the Rubicon! Pack a lunch and enjoy a nice relaxing lunch on one of the beaches. When you've had enough, turn around and re-trace your steps back to your car.

I think the most beautiful hike in Tahoe, particularly the first 1 or so up the side of the mountain.
