Naturalist Walks at High Camp
Take a guided walk to learn about plants, animals, and geology.
Step into a high-alpine world at 8,200 feet with a guided nature walk at High Camp, an experience that perfectly blends mountain adventure with meaningful discovery. Set against the rugged beauty of the upper mountain, each scenic excursion invites you to connect with the unique Sierra Nevada landscape in a whole new way. Led by knowledgeable mountain guides, every nature walk reveals a distinct story of the region: its fascinating geology, seasonal alpine wildflowers, local wildlife, and the rich cultural history woven into this iconic terrain.
Whether you are captivated by panoramic ridgelines or curious about the natural forces that shaped this alpine environment, every nature walk offers an authentic and inspiring high-Sierra experience. This signature outdoor activity is perfect for Lake Tahoe guests of all ages who want to slow down, look closer, and gain a much deeper appreciation for our unique mountain terrain.
Every guided nature walk is completely free to join; simply make your way to High Camp by riding our scenic Aerial Tram or hiking to the upper mountain trail system. These educational outdoor experiences also pair perfectly with our Washoe Cultural Talks, offered on select dates throughout the North Lake Tahoe summer season.
