Echo Lakes
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.

Keep exploring Lake Tahoe with our travel partners.
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.
