Echo Lakes provides a rocky lakeside walk near Echo Summit. The shoreline trail links the lower and upper lakes, with longer routes continuing into Desolation Wilderness.

Why go

The path follows the water past weathered trees and cabins before reaching the rocky divide between the two lakes. It provides an alpine-lake experience without requiring the full journey to Lake Aloha. Choose a turn-around point in advance, since continuing along the wider trail network can quickly turn a moderate walk into a long mountain day.

What to look for

  • Rocky lakeside trail
  • Lower and Upper Echo lake views

Useful to know

  • Respect cabin privacy and check road and wilderness-permit conditions.
