Always Bring a Day Trip Map or the Map & Access Guide

While this map can be a great tool for finding your way while on the Water Trail, it depends on internet access, and many areas of Lake Tahoe do not have cell reception or wifi. You should always carry one of our Day Trip maps. Go here to download the Water Trail Day Trip maps.

We’ve segmented the 72-mile water route into 7 Day Trip Maps for out-and-back paddles from one beach or point-to-point excursions that connect public beach sites. Each map includes a mapped route with mileage, launch/landing sites, trailheads with wayfinding signage, parking and restrooms, and public beach access to waterfront attractions.

Better yet, carry the waterproof Map & Access Guide!
