It truly wouldn’t have been possible otherwise,” said Patrick Parsel, TAMBA Trails Director. “The opening of the Lily Lake Trail has been a long time coming, and we are so grateful to all of our partners - including the Tahoe Fund, USFS and TRPA staff - as well as the crew leaders and volunteers who helped make it happen. Stunning, unmatched views of Desolation Wilderness, Fallen Leaf Lake and Lake Tahoe.

The trail partners gathered for an official opening on June 30th. The new 2.1-mile multi-use Lily Lake Trail has been completed by the US Forest Service (USFS) and the Tahoe Area Mountain Biking Association (TAMBA) and offers new access to Fallen Leaf Lake and Desolation Wilderness for non-motorized users including hikers and experienced mountain bikers. – Tahoe’s newest trail, sure to become one of the region’s most iconic, is now open thanks to nearly 4,000 volunteer trail building hours and generous contributions from Tahoe Fund donors including the Mathman family and a triple match from Vail Resorts’ EpicPromise guest donation program at Northstar, Heavenly and Kirkwood.
