Welcome to Lake Tahoe! Mark Twain called Tahoe “the fairest picture the whole earth affords”. Today, millions of visitors from around the world discover and share the refreshing allure of the cobalt blue lake, clear skies, clean air, and activities. Lake Tahoe’s endless array of activities runs the gamut of the seasons. With a focus on the outdoors, Tahoe’s 72 miles of shoreline and surrounding mountain ranges provide a diversity that takes many trips to truly discover. On the lake, enjoy boating, swimming, sailing, kayaking and fishing. Beyond the lake itself, spectacular hiking, biking and river-rafting experiences await you — not to mention the winter ski season! The north shore, known for its pure and simple mountain personality, is home to the historic and quaint resort town of Truckee. Squaw Valley USA — site of the 1960 Olympic Winter Games — is a must-visit, with its scenic Cable Car rides and all the events and activities in the base Village. Northstar’s new Village offers fun for all ages, and numerous dining, shopping, and activity options are available in the enchanting lakeside towns of Sunnyside, Homewood, Tahoe City, Carnelian Bay, Tahoe Vista, and Kings Beach.

Crossing the border to Nevada, gaming and nightlife are added to the exciting mix in Crystal Bay and Incline Village, the northern gateway to the unparalleled beauty of the unspoiled east shore’s beaches. Lake Tahoe’s southern shore embraces Emerald Bay, one of the most photographed locations in the world, which can be seen from scenic Highway 89, or via a spectacular ride on one of Tahoe’s famed paddlewheel cruises or other watercraft. Along the lake's shore, from Camp Richardson to Zephyr Cove, you will discover numerous spots to play, dine, and relax. Stateline is full of fun options with the new Heavenly Village, spectacular views from the top of the Heavenly Gondola, and the nightlife and excitement of the casino resorts and nightclubs. No less than seventeen renowned golf courses abound in the Lake Tahoe and High Sierra region. From the 70-degree comfort among Ponderosa pines and granite boulders around the Lake, to the rugged and beautiful arroyo-forced carries and sagebrush roughs in the Carson Valley, the region offers a golf experience to rival the world’s finest. Whether from a hot air balloon, a perch on a mountain peak, afloat in a boat on the crystal clear lake water, or lounging on a lakefront sundeck, Lake Tahoe is all about exploration, recreation, relaxation, and inspiration.

Get out and enjoy!
