South Lake Tahoe offers several dog-friendly trails, including the Van Sickle Bi-State Park and the Taylor Creek Visitor Center. Both places allow leashed pets on designated trails. The Lake Tahoe region is known for its pet-friendly accommodations, with many hotels and vacation rentals welcoming pets for an additional fee. It's essential to bring plenty of water, waste bags, and ensure your pet is up to date on vaccinations. Remember to respect other hikers and wildlife by keeping your dog on a leash at all times.
