Exceptional views open up at a gap in the snow shed tunnels that used to protect the old railroad tracks across Donner Pass. Now this section is converted to a trail and can be walked all year, though snowshoes and poles are particularly useful in winter when the trail is slippery.

A place for you to enjoy beautiful views of Donner Lake and Tahoe National Forest. Take your time to relax and appreciate the surrounding nature.

The Bridgeport Covered Bridge is a historical landmark located in the South Yuba River State Park. Built in 1862 by David John Wood, this iconic structure is the longest single-span wooden covered bridge in the world, stretching 233 feet across the South Yuba River. The bridge originally served as a crucial crossing point for miners, traders, and settlers during the California Gold Rush, facilitating transportation and commerce in the region. It is a California Registered Historical Landmark and was listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1971.

Tunnel 6 was built by Chinese laborers in 1866 by hand. They broke and hauled off solid granite rock, working in harsh conditions. They built Tunnel 6, the longest tunnel in the Sierra Crossing. Today, you can still walk through the tunnel and imagine what a feat building it by hand was.

Donner Pass sits at an elevation of 7,056 feet above Donner Lake. The pass was originally used by the California Trail and America's first transcontinental railroad. It is named after the ill-fated Donner Party, who overwintered there in 1846.

Great view onto the Tahoe National Forest. The view spot is only a small distance down a trail off the PCT, so it is definitely worth the extra effort.

Short detour from the PCT that leads to the summit of Judah. It's a parallel trail that offers even better views. A must, as long as there's not too much snow remaining on the trail.
