Hiking spots in Tahoe or surrounding areas?

Does anyone know of any good spots to go hiking in the tahoe, south lake, north lake, doesnt matter... looking for a nice scenic hike thats not to strenuous. Dont want to go over 5 miles, just a small 3-5 hour hike would be cool. Directions would be nice too!

I've hike all over Tahoe. One of my favorite hikes in to cascade falls on the west side of the lake right by emerald bay. Its about a 45 minute hike in on a trail thats pretty easy. This year is the best i've seen the falls though in awhile. great views of the falls, cascade lake, and lake tahoe.

There is a couple of good hikes around Spooner Lake. I think there is a 5 mile hike (one way). When you park there (which is ~$10 I think) they have maps of the hikes.
