What we'll do

Join the Truckee Donner Land Trust for a stroll through Elizabethtown Meadows. The Middle Fork of Martis Creek, a year round stream, runs for nearly a mile through the property. The property consists of Jeffrey Pine forest uplands and three large mountain meadows. We will wander through the meadow to enjoy wildflowers, wildlife and amazing view of the Pacific Crest.

Hiking Details:

An easy 7 mile hike with minimal elevation changes through meadows and forests.


What should I bring?

Can I bring my dog?

No. Pets will not be allowed on any of the group hikes. We kindly ask that you please leave your pets at home. Your canine companion is welcome at every Land Trust property that is currently open to the public. Please visit tdlandtrust.org for recommendations.
