Glen Alpine Falls is a large and wide waterfall. I was able to get parking in this area as it was not too busy and walked the 2 minute walk to the falls.

The road will go about a mile before it passes a campground. That being said, when you make it to the lake, you will be ok with pulling over as the views are incredibly beautiful. The road is only 1.5 lanes max, so when anyone is coming from the other way, you will need to pull out. As soon as you turn onto it though, be prepared for slow going. The road to Fallen Leaf Lake is signed and is right off Highway 89, south of Emerald Bay.

  • No real trail to the falls it is just right where you park.
  • It takes about 20 minutes to get there from the main highway
  • One lane road, so you have to pull over for people often.
  • This waterfall is a beautiful spot to visit in Tahoe, and since there is no hiking required, it is an excellent spot for families. So on the way back to the hotel from kayaking to Fannette Island, I decided to drive up and see the lake and Glen Alpine Falls, which is on the south end. When researching things to do in South Lake Tahoe, I kept coming across the recommendation to visit Fallen Leaf Lake.
