10.5 miles round trip
Starting from the Eagle Falls trailhead, you get the best of both worlds: a great view of Emerald Bay and access to the gorgeous alpine Eagle Lake. Continue past Eagle Lake to reach the pristine Velma Lakes after the junction of Dicks Lake and the Bayview Trail. Your first stop will be Upper Velma, but you could also continue on and camp at several sites at Middle Velma Lake.
Trailhead Directions: From South Lake Tahoe, take CA-89 to the Eagle Falls trailhead above Emerald Bay. Parking for this area is very busy.
