Tahoe Donner Trails
The Tahoe Donner Trail System is the ultimate playground for hikers, trail runners, mountain bikers and equestrians with more than 46 miles of singletrack trails and 30 miles of doubletrack administrative roads spanning over 5,000 acres. With thousands of users – horses and dogs included – it is essential that we all work together and observe basic trail rules and etiquette to keep Tahoe Donner Lands and Open Space safe and enjoyable for everyone.
Tahoe Donner’s popular Euer Valley area is undergoing major trail improvements this summer as part of a planned restoration project. Multiple trail closures will be in effect beginning in June with work continuing through October 2025.
Temporary Closures:
- Wed., Sept. 24 – As part of the ongoing Euer Valley Restoration Project, South Euer Valley Road, Hidden Gem and Giddy Up trails will be closed on Wednesday, Sept. 24 while concrete trucks access the site. The closures will begin at the end of the workday on Tuesday, Sept. 23 and reopen as soon as the pour is complete on Thursday. Please note, Fools Gold and Coyote Crossing remain closed until October, while Cinnamon Twist will remain open—use caution when crossing at South and North Euer Valley Road.
- Flying Squirrel – Riding on this trail will ruin the clay surface, causing damage to the trail and tread; the Trail Crew is working on repairing the breaking bumps.
Full-Season Closures (July 7–October 31, 2025):
- Fool’s Gold
- Coyote Crossing
For your safety and the success of these long-term improvements, please stay off all closed trails and obey posted signage.
