Lacey Meadows Docent Led Hike

Lacey Meadows and Webber Lake have been closed to the public for decades. Come discover the long hidden beauty and charm of the area, walk through Lacey Meadows and find a plethora of Sierra birds and wildflowers. The Lacey Valley Trail, about six miles roundtrip, offers an easy and memorable hike. The meadows offer spectacular wildflowers in spring and summer and are host to over one hundred species of birds, including rare and endangered species. The trail begins at trailhead at the west end of the lake. There is not a bridge across Lacey Creek and for most of the summer your feet will get wet. The trail is wide and mostly flat with an uphill section between Lower and Lacey Meadows. The hike ends where the trail meets the Meadow Lake Road and will return the same way you came.
