Stateline Lookout is a 1.7 mile heavily trafficked loop trail located near Incline Village-Crystal Bay, Nevada that features beautiful wild flowers and is good for all skill levels. The trail is primarily used for walking, running, nature trips, and bird watching and is best used from May until October. Dogs are also able to use this trail.
This paved trail begins in Nevada and ends in California at an old fire lookout with beautiful views of the Lake and mountains. Although this trail is paved, it is steep with a grade of 8% to 12% for much of the trail so it is not considered wheelchair or stroller friendly. It typically has a width of at least two feet. It may be too steep or narrow for some manual wheelchair or stroller users without assistance.
It is suggested to park below the gate on the street and make sure to not block any of the residential driveways.

April 18, 2021It was awesome!
April 18, 2021Wonderful views, avoid bathroom at all costs.
April 15, 2021it's nice to take whole piture of Tahoe
April 13, 2021Absolutely beautiful! The hike was a little shorter than we had anticipated but the views were stunning almost the entire way. Not a difficult hike, but the first bit is slightly uphill. The loop at the top was so beautiful we had to walk it twice. Highly recommend this trail!
April 11, 2021Nice easy stroll with great views.
March 30, 2021Beautiful scenery. We went at the end of March. Snow and ice on some parts of the trail. Lots of wind at the top. Relatively easy hike for adults and children around 10 years old.
March 28, 2021Easy trail with awesome views.
March 21, 2021March 9, 2021Great view
March 8, 2021Gorgeous views! Pretty steep Climb to get to them but worth it!
March 1, 2021Absolutely stunning views on this trail. There’s snow, but nothing intense to hike through. I didn’t even have snow friendly shoes and I was fine. A must!! Accessible for all levels of hikers and dog friendly too :)
February 20, 2021Easy hike with beautiful overlook. It was slick in spots. Didn’t need snowshoes but I could have used my pole.
February 17, 2021easy with a good payoff. no snowshoes needed
February 16, 2021Very easy hike. I recommend hiking shoes or snow boots. The snow was packed down pretty well so hiking shoes worked fine for us. Came on a Tuesday and the parking was on the road right next to the entrance.
February 14, 2021February 13, 2021February 12, 2021Beautiful trail. We didn’t use snow shoes (it’s very packed down) but poles were helpful as it can get icy. Incredible views of the lake. Great benches at overlooks along the trail and the top to stop for a bite to eat and take in the views. There is a bathroom near the top- just make sure to bring hand sanitizer and toilet paper if desired.
February 5, 2021Beautiful Blue Bird day. Went up with Microspikes and then switched to snowshoes for fun exploring at the top and down in snowshoes. Some did in snow boots only.
February 3, 2021short walk (out and back due to snow) but nice views at the top
January 24, 2021Beautiful view. A little bit of ice.
January 18, 2021The majority of the trail is icy, it was easier going up then down. Definitely wear hiking boots and not tennis shoes or Ugg type of boots. The views are pretty, but there are a lot better places to go I think. There is a place to go to the bathroom, but I don’t think it being maintained right now, my dog refused to go inside it was so bad.
January 16, 2021Lovely views. Some patches of ice amongst the snow but more than manageable.
January 16, 2021January 7, 2021December 26, 2020Nic3 in the snow
December 21, 2020Amazing little 1.6 mile hike!! Did this in the snow and the trails were cut out great! Highly recommend for a great view and walk/hike on the snow.
