The largest of the lochs |

Middle Loch Leven Lake
Middle Loch Leven Lake
is the largest loch of the
Loch Leven Lakes in California's
Tahoe National Forest.
The hiking distance from the trailhead at
Hampshire Rocks Road
is 2.8 miles. It takes about another mile to get to the
High Loch Leven Lake.
The lochs are surrounded by forest, shrubs and granite rocks. My favorite lakes
for swimming on a hot summer day are the middle and upper lochs, on the banks of which you
can find spots from where you may want to slide down a granite slope or carefully dive
into a refreshing, deep pocket of clear blue or greenish blue water.
