Hiking
At 10,335 feet, Relay Peak belongs to the highest summits in the Lake Tahoe Basin and is the highest point on the Tahoe Rim Trail. Compared to its surrounding peaks, Relay Peak is rather easy to reach but still offers amazing views of the surrounding area and Lake Tahoe.

Relay Peak rises to 3,135 meters above sea level. This is the highest point of the Tahoe Rim Trail! From there, we have a superb view of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding peaks. It really is a nice spot!
