Fashionable travelers know that the place to be seen in winter is on the slopes in Tahoe, where there are more ski resorts per square mile than anywhere else in the world. In fact, the 1960 Winter Olympics were held in Tahoe’s Squaw Valley because of the ample runs and fantastic powder. This winter wonderland offers you choices from snowshoeing to snow tubing to snowmobile riding.

When the snow melts, what’s left are hundreds of hiking and mountainbiking trails all around the lake. As you explore this terrain, you might find yourself stopping for a while or even spending the night, as the surrounding wilderness makes for great camping. Much of the land in Tahoe either lies within state parks or is protected by the U.S. Forest Service.

Watch the sailboat races on the lake, play golf nearby, take a scenic drive around the lake or explore the quaint surrounding towns. A Lake Tahoe Vacation will keep your body moving and your mind racing.
