The Flume Trail Mountain Bike Ride is a moderately difficult one way 14 mile ride at 7000' to 8000' feet in elevation with over a 1000' of climbing in the first four miles and 4.5 miles of single track.

There are several mountain biking trails off the Flume Trail, but if you follow the Flume Trail the whole way you will be rewarded with magnificent views of Lake Tahoe and the surrounding Sierra.
