Depending upon where you land on the site it can be quite difficult to find descriptions of the routes.
My only suggestion would be for Flume Trail Bikes to improve the navigation on its web site. Beautiful flowy trails through large granite bolders with views of Lake Tahoe and to the east. We enjoyed the Flume ride so much that we also did the Tahoe Rim and the Tahoe Rim/Flume Trail rides. Recommned downloading the TrailForks app prior to the ride. There is also a four mile climb from the drop-off point so riders should be in reasonable shape. There is quite a bit of exposure in several spots (if you slipped off the left side of trail you would be seriously injured or killed) so would not recommed for beginner mtn. Walk up to our shop after you park your car at the start of the path. Located at the start of the East Shore Path behind Tunnel Creek Cafe. The views from the Flume trail are spectacular. Open every day for bike path bikes and Class 1 pedal assist e bikes for the East Shore Trail.

Driver was friendly and gave us a few navigation tips at the drop-off. Purchased tickets online and caught the shuttle at the scheduled time. Our party of six (ages 55-67) rode the Flume Trail Shuttle to get to the start of the Flume trail and had a wonderful day enjoying spectacular views of Lake Tahoe. Fue increíble, pero lo he tachado de mi lista. Estuve bastante aterrorizado la mayor parte del camino hacia abajo porque era difícil no ir tan rápido. Pensé que me encontraría con él, pero gracias a Dios no lo hice. Hubo una vez que mi esposo se detuvo y yo no podía detenerme porque iba muy rápido. Pero lo más aterrador fue el descenso de las últimas 3 millas. A veces era un poco arriesgado para mí montar en un camino estrecho a lo largo de la montaña. Hermosos paisajes y muchos lugares para detenerse. Luego hay un corto trayecto cuesta abajo antes de que se vuelva plano. Con una bicicleta eléctrica, no se cansaba hasta la última milla, que es la más empinada. Seré honesto, las 4 millas arriba son difíciles. Mi esposo y dos hijos adolescentes alquilaron una bicicleta normal y caminaron con ella la mayor parte del camino. Estoy cerca de los 50 y no hago mucho ejercicio. Rent bikes and check in on trail conditions at Flume Trail Mountain Bikes ( Bike rentals start at $45 a day shuttles from $15.En primer lugar, tengo que admitir que hubo una vez que le dije a mi marido: "❾n qué me has metido? ! ”Dicho esto, me alegro de haber recorrido el sendero en bicicleta, pero la bicicleta eléctrica fue un salvavidas para mí. We are the original shuttle service and bike rental for the Flume Trail operating since 2000. Max opened and cleared the Flume Trail for mountain bike riding and hiking in 1983. Many local bike shops provide shuttles for the point-to-point rides in the Rim Trail. Flume Trail Bikes Owned and Operated by Max Jones Max is a two time National Mountain Bike Champion and Mountain Bike Hall of Fame Member. Need to Know: Some sections of the trail are only open to bikes on certain days. One of the best things about the rides on the Rim Trail is that it can be just as much fun for novices as it is for fat-tire vets. Just remember, it’s tough to keep your eyes on the trail with all those eye-popping views of the lake. Though not officially part of the Rim Trail itself, it’s the signature ride here, and it requires a decent climb and a bit of singletrack to get down. Nine miles (14 kilometers) in, you’ll split off onto the adjacent 22-mile (35-kilometer) Flume Trail, which starts at the Spooner Lake campground. In fact, the riding here is so sublime that the International Mountain Bicycling Association (IMBA) named the 21.8-mile (35-kilometer) section between Tahoe Meadows and Spooner Summit as one of its Epics, an honor bestowed on trails that epitomize the best that mountain biking has to offer.įor good reason: The trail takes in gritty climbs and fast descents with spectacular views of Tahoe to the west and the Nevada desert to the east. More than 80 miles (129 kilometers) of the trail are open to mountain bikes. Encircling the largest alpine lake in North America, the 165-mile (266-kilometer) Tahoe Rim Trail just may be the singletrack with the greatest view in the United States.
