Lake Tahoe’s crown jewel – an oasis of shimmering greens, turquoise and blues against a strikingly beautiful mountain backdrop on the Lake’s west shore – this is Emerald Bay. Due to Lake Tahoe’s incredible clarity and depth, the colors of the lake are surreal, and Emerald Bay is the perfect place to take in the entirety of the scene.

Eagle Falls is one of three waterfalls that eventually cascade down into the creek that runs into Emerald Bay. Your guide will take you on a novice level hike to the main waterfall. A man made bridge spans the waterfall and provides a scenic spot for your guide to photograph your party.
