Located at Sugar Pine Point State Park in Homewood on Tahoe's west shore, this is a relatively easy ride. Beginning at the park's campground, turn left and cross a bridge after 2.5 miles. There is a marker at the four-mile point. Also suggested for a shorter trip, turn left and head back to the campground. To complete the loop stay on the fire road to Highway 89.
Total distance is six miles.
Paige Meadows can provide some beautiful wildflower displays and there are a number of trails leading from the Talmont development down toward Ward Creek Blvd. Please note that Paige Meadows, especially during the spring and summer, is wetlands area and extremely fragile. Stay on wooded trails during these periods and avoid the open meadows to preserve their natural integrity. Challenging for novices, but easier for more advanced riders, this loop has few steep inclines. Starting at the William Kent Campground, the trail is 32 miles each way.
