Emerald Bay Trail Run
South Lake Tahoe, United States • 12 Sep 2026
Emerald Bay Trail Run is a 7-mile (11 km) point-to-point race in the Lake Tahoe region. The course begins at Eagle Point, circles Emerald Bay, and climbs the Rubicon Trail to DL Bliss State Park, finishing at Lester Beach. Runners traverse mostly single-track with moderate climbs and descents, and encounter technical granite steps, all while taking in iconic Lake Tahoe scenery. The event, hosted by Big Blue Adventure, offers a challenging experience in Emerald Bay State Park, with a race shirt, finishing medal, photo, snacks, medical staff, and shuttle service between start and finish. Note: 2025 event delayed due to a waterline project. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
