Tahoe 200
The Tahoe 200 is a 200 mile ultramarathon that circles Lake Tahoe, the largest alpine lake in North America. The marked route primarily follows the Tahoe Rim Trail and occasionally detours from the TRT to pass through aspen meadows, rock gardens, small alpine lakes, dense forest canopy, and long ridgelines with expansive views. Parts of the route explore the Desolation Wilderness.
The current course is the out and back version; the original loop course is being considered pending Forest Service review and progress on forest mitigation work. Sections within the Tahoe Basin are reported ready while more remote sections in the Eldorado National Forest are still under remediation. The event takes place on National Forest lands.
Course metrics published by the organizer list 200.2 miles with total elevation gain and loss of 36,857 feet. Support infrastructure includes eleven full aid stations, three sleep stations, and crew access at five locations. The published time cutoff for the course is 105 hours. The event location is listed as Heavenly Stagecoach Lodge in the Lake Tahoe area. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
