CA89 Hike Cards: Lake Vistas Unlocked in Week 6

We just can’t get enough of Lake Tahoe, whether it’s splashing in the water on a hot summer day, checking out the ancient rock formations around it, or climbing way up high to see the lake, sky, and mountains all in one incredible bird’s eye view.

This week’s featured hikes from our new CA89 Hikes box set are a lake lover’s treat. Like all 30 cards in the collection, they come with color photos, length and difficulty ratings, trail descriptions, directions to the trailhead, and insider tips.

The complete set features hikes along meadows and boardwalks, through forests, and even through tunnels — but this week, we’re highlighting three out-and-back trails that are all about the lake:

• Chimney Beach Trail & Secret Cove (Easy), a 2.4-mile out-and-back trail to the beach, where you can take a dip and check out the geologic chimney formation.

• Monkey Rock (Moderate), a 2.6-mile out-and-back trail where you can get sweeping views of the lake and come face to face with Monkey Rock in one quick & manageable hike.

• Mount Tallac Trail (Hard), a 10.5-mile out-and-back trail that’ll beckon you up 3,200+ feet to a stellar view from one of Tahoe’s most iconic peaks.

Let us show you all the best parts of Tahoe with our new box set, on sale now online and in store at California 89 and CA89 Home. We’ll donate a portion of the proceeds from each box we sell to the Tahoe Fund to help protect these awesome places for generations to come.

Stay tuned for more featured hikes in the weeks to come.
