The parking area for the beach is on the south edge of Lake Tahoe – Nevada State Park on Nevada State Route 28 and is the trailhead for the Chimney Beach Trail. It is 0.5 miles (0.80 km) long to hike from the Secret Harbor Parking Lot down to Chimney Beach on the east shore of Lake Tahoe.2 Chimney Beach is located near the end of Marlette Creek. The trail connects to a series of mountain trails just south of Marlette Lake.3
