Confirmed from South Tahoe Bikeway Trailheads' own listing, the park or land manager's website, and runner reviews. Blank cells mean we could not verify that fact — we would rather say "not reported" than invent one. There is no Easy / Moderate / Hard rating on this page on purpose: a one-word difficulty score tells you nothing about whether a trail suits your run. Surface, distance, shade and hours do.

This was a great bike path, well marked, easy to follow and fairly flat.
Beautiful trail to ride from Casinos to Camp Richardson or further. Very family friendly and if you get hungry, just swing by any restaurant a block away on the main road or pick nick at one of the beaches just off the trail
Great bike trail ! Not easy to find the entrances. Parking wasn't an issue, it was October, I imagine it will be a challenge in the Summer. Beautiful area. Lots of directions you can take yourself in. There is a small chance you can get lost if you are directionally challenged, so put a pin where you parked
Wonderful bike path right behind the South Lake Tahoe motel 6 I happen to be staying at. I believe it goes about five miles in ethers direction i walked the to the lake and the state line .It was really cool in November close to freezing .Beautiful views Truckee, river, marsh
