HIKING: Cave Lake State Park

← NV 139 N20 E51 24ADAD1 KVM ET 139 N20 E51 24ADAD1 KVM ET Triple Blaze →

Description

Motorized vehicles are prohibited on all trails. Four developed hiking trails are maintained. An easy, three-mile round trip can be found on the Steptoe Creek Trail. The trail starts at the lower parking lot and crosses the creek on a series of foot and returns via Success Summit Road. The Cave Springs Trail, including five miles of moderately strenuous hiking, starts at the lower parking lot and meanders throughout the surrounding hills. Cave Lake Overlook trail is a strenuous 4.5 mile loop that starts on the east end of the lake. The Twisted Pines Trail is our newest addition that connects to the Overlook Trail. This trail is moderate, starting below Elk Flat Campground. It is just over four miles one way and ends on the Overlook Trail loop.

Directions

The park is eight miles south of Ely on U.S. 93, turning onto Success Summit road (State route 486) and continuing east for seven miles.
