Squaw Valley Park Access provides a trailhead for the 2-mile asphalt Squaw Valley Bike Path that runs moderately uphill through the valley with scenic meadow views, connecting to the longer 7-mile Truckee River Trail toward Tahoe City.

The park offers parking, restrooms, and picnic facilities, though the trail can be busy with cyclists, pedestrians, and hikers, and features minimal shade with best visiting conditions May-November.

Access to the Truckee River corridor is available via the connected trail system that parallels Highway 89.
