- This hike starts at the Spooner Summit south trailhead and goes for about 7 miles south to the summit of Genoa Peak. Once there you will have views of both the Carson Valley and Lake Tahoe. The hike is somewhat challenging and has a couple of good climbs plus the steep climb to the summit of Genoa Peak. The last bit to the summit is on a steep dirt road with a bit of a rock scramble that is not too difficult for most people.
There is a decent amount of parking at the trailhead, but it can fill up quickly on a nice day. Lots of cyclists use these trails as well, so pay attention and be courteous. There are pit toilets at the trailhead, but they we were not maintained very well when we were there. This is a VERY dry stretch of trail, so bring as much water as you can carry if you are doing the full hike.

I'm #1 to give this a thumbs up.
This is an all new area I was unaware of. Thanks for sharing your time, effort, & equipment on this outdoor adventure.
Warm Regards from Reno, Nevada.
As always, I enjoy sharing the beauty of our back yard.
What a peaceful video! Looks like you had a great day.
The only other time I came through this area was when we hiked the Tahoe Rim Trail. The first part of the hike is difficult, but once you get to where the bench is you are rewarded with some of the best views on the trail.
Great video!
Thank you!
