Engage With Your Tahoe Trail Community

Share the Stoke - Follow your progress, check the leaderboard, connect with fellow participants, and share your trail photos using #tmtetrailx. We love seeing dusty boots, summit smiles, refreshing alpine lakes, and all the incredible moments in between!

Respect the Trails - Tahoe's trails are spectacular, but they are also delicate. Help us protect our backyard by practicing Leave No Trace principles. Stay on the designated trail to prevent erosion, take only photos, and pack out what you pack in. If you spot litter, be a trail hero, pick it up, and help keep our high-country habitats beautiful.
