FULL MOON & SUNSET HIKES - Try one of our evening Full Moon or Sunset Hikes Schedule These wonderful hikes take place every Friday and Saturday (except Saturday, July 25) evening throughout the summer. Explore Squaw Valley's upper mountain as the moon rises and the sun sets over Lake Tahoe.

Dogs

You are welcome to bring your dog with you on your hike at Squaw Valley. Please be sure to bring a leash as all dogs must be leashed while riding in the Cable Car and inside any buildings or facilities. There is no charge for dogs on the Cable Car. Once at High Camp, your dog is welcome on the hiking trails, however, dogs are not permitted at the ice skating rink and pool, nor in any restaurants. We ask that you use your best judgment in leashing them on the trails.
