High Camp Meadow Loop

Chemin de randonnée

Facile
1,18 mi
193 pi
Easy hike from the top of the tram, through flower-filled meadows with a view of Lake Tahoe.

During the summer at Palisades Tahoe, High Camp is the place to be. There you’ll find dining with a view, a swimming pool and hot tub, shopping, outdoor games, and even skiing on winter’s leftover snow. Most visitors reach it by riding the aerial tram, but you can hike there on [Shirley Canyon Trail]( or [Thunder Mountain Trail]( From High Camp, a number of other hikes are possible, including this popular and easy loop through the surrounding meadows.

It’s a gentle walk uphill, on a dirt path through a meadow of yellow wildflowers on a sunny slope. Ahead you’ll see the craggy, snow-streaked peaks of the ski resort, and in the distance, you can see Lake Tahoe rimmed by more mountains. The loop’s highpoint is on a ridgeline with an even broader panorama. The hike then turns downhill on a different, equally scenic path to return to High Camp.
