Royal Gorge is the largest cross-country ski area in North America, and thanks to the Truckee Donner Land Trust, it is now open to mountain biking and hiking. The trails offer amazing views of some of the most majestic peaks in Tahoe.

Canyon View Bridge goes over Raccoon Creek. Raccoon Creek flows across Hidden Falls Regional Park. 50 feet east of this point is a Hidden Falls Access Trail going south to Hidden Falls.

It's not often you can get eye level to a 155 foot tall dam, but at the edge of Lake Clementine you can. The North Fork Dam was designed so that the river would overflow its top. So if you're here in late winter or early spring, when the runoff is at its peak, the resulting man made waterfall can be quite impressive.

Passing over this bridge, you can clearly see the small canyon of the Raccoon Creek. This creek completely crosses this small Regional Park.

This is a popular peak in Tahoe National Forest because of the great views of the Granite Chief Wilderness and the Royal Gorge. There is also a tree swing at the peak, so it is a great spot for a break during your run.

Rowton Peak is a popular spot to get a great view of Royal Gorge. The path up is moderately challenging, but it is definitely worth the effort for the view at the top.
