Monkey Rock Reviews

03/31/23

Fairly easy to find the trail head. May have to pay for parking at the newer lots but worth the price of admission to see this giant monkey carved boulder. Trail is a bit steep. Offers an incredible view of Lake Tahoe from the top. Bring lots of water and watch out for mountain bikes that also use this trail.

The views are amazing. The rock is at the top and then down a little to the right.

This hike is fairly steep all the way up but definitely worth the view. Dogs and mountain bikes are welcome. Keep an eye out for the Monkey at the top.
