Top Of Mt. Tallac is a scenic lookout South Lake Tahoe located in United States.
South Lake Tahoe , CA United States
6-7hrs total. Bring snacks (don't forget Fido) & extra water. Wear layers, as it gets very windy at the top. There are some serious inclines close to the top and many jagged rocks to climb.
Not a difficult trail (not a lot of bouldering, etc) but with the elevation gain, it's strenuous - trekking poles helped a lot! Well maintained trail , but lots of walking over rocks - wear good boots !
Amazing 360 degree view of Lake Tahoe and Desolation Wilderness. And just a 4.5 mile hike to get here.
You feel like you are on top of the world! 9735 feet....
If you go to South Lake Tahoe and don't go up in the gondolas you're missing the best view in town. - Sue Reddel
Take walking sticks! - Paul Rogers
Although yes, this trail is dog friendly, if you're planning a trek to the top your dog should be medium/large. My 20lb pup did great until the extremely rocky tip-top. - Jennifer Ames
