Traveler Alert: Highway 4 Ebbetts Pass is still open for the season, but we are experiencing intermittent closures during storms with snow at higher elevations. Please check road conditions before you travel.
Jutting up from the heart of the Sierra Nevada with Lake Tahoe and Yosemite National Park as its neighbors, the Ebbetts Pass Scenic Byway is a 61-mile stretch of Highways 4 & 89 through Arnold, Bear Valley & Markleeville, California
THE ROUTE
EVENTS ON THE BYWAY
RECREATION
The Ebbetts Pass National Scenic Byway, a 61 mile stretch of California State Highways 4 and 89, is one of the last remaining wild trans-Sierra passes. The route winds through breathtaking mountain, valley, and forest scenery provides access to outdoor recreation areas as it crosses the Sierra. Anchored by a State Park at either end, it traverses two national forests and two Wilderness areas. A two lane paved highway at either end, the road becomes a steep, curvy, single lane ribbon of asphalt at the higher elevations, a portion of which is closed to traffic during winter months.
