What if I can’t find a parking spot at the Park Tahoe parking facility?

We recommend arriving early in the morning or later in the afternoon to park at the new Park Tahoe paid parking facility, as parking spots fill quickly—especially during the summer and on weekends!

Please note that Sand Harbor has flashing signs on SR 28 and US 50 advising when parking lots are full.

The East Shore Express Service to Sand Harbor will begin operations on June 28, 2024. This season, hourly paid parking will be available at the Tunnel Creek parking lot, located at 1102 Tahoe Blvd. at the Tahoe East Shore Trailhead. For more information, read the FULL press release HERE.

Tahoe Truckee Area Regional Transportation (TART) operates a summer bus service along the north shore of Tahoe to the Tahoe East Shore Trail trailhead and new this year is TART Connect microtransit serving Incline Village. TTD and TART transit services are currently free to ride for all passengers. For more information on TART services, explore their site here.

Please note, the Tunnel Creek Café or parking area are not affiliated with Park Tahoe.
