Gorgeous scenery! Take a walk through the lush wetlands at the Southern edge of Lake Tahoe. While I imagine the landscape changes somewhat throughout the year, in early June it was lush, green, and beautiful. There are informational plaques that tell you about the wetlands,and there are benches along the way where you can sit and listen to the aspen... More

I went to the visitor center to ask a question, but when I got there I got way more than expected. There is a trail called, Rainbow Trail that takes you through meadows, a marsh area and onto Taylor Creek.

Lots of information and really enjoyed our time here would obviously be a lot better when there was more water in the creek.

The Taylor Creek Visitor Center was a great place to visit for an afternoon stroll through nature. There is a loop trail that takes you through different ecosystems to view different plants and animals. We especially enjoyed seeing thousands of salmon during the salmon run. Unfortunately, since it was the end of the season, the visitor center building was closed... More
