SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. – The Taylor Creek Visitor Center’s Stream Profile Chamber is now open, located around three miles north of the City of South Lake Tahoe on State Route 89.
The chamber is an underground viewing chamber where visitors can watch trout and other aquatic life in Taylor Creek.
In addition to the viewing chamber, the visitor center is a hub offering visitor information and accessible, educational and self-guided trails that wander through forests and marshes, along the creek and around the beach.
The underground chamber is accessed off a half-mile loop of the center’s Rainbow Trail.
Audio tours are available for the center’s Lake of the Sky Trail as well as on general cultural and natural histories of the area.
The Taylor Creek Visitor Center and Stream Profile Chamber are free to the public.
The visitor center is typically open June through October.
The Stream Profile Chamber is available Wednesdays through Sundays from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.
