Tahoe’s Greatest Winter Hits Winter highlights and excursions Olympic Valley/Village at Palisades Tahoe This scenic mountain valley was the site of the 1960 Winter Olympic Games. The pedestrian base village has a unique variety of shops, restaurants, bars, and outdoor seating near firepits. Beautiful sightseeing rides are offered on the aerial tram, with children under-12 riding free. Weather permitting, nearby Everline Resort offers dog sledding, cross-country skiing and ice skating.
Heavenly Village/Stateline Heavenly Village and four nearby casino towers at Stateline are a world-class nucleus of fun. Shops and dining spots line both sides of Highway 50, linked by wide sidewalks and open areas. Heavenly Village has ice skating and sightseeing rides on its aerial gondola, carrying passengers up to 9,123-foot elevation and spectacular views.
Tahoe City/Truckee River Outlet State Park Tahoe City clears snow from a network of sidewalks and bike paths overlooking the lake, linking one-of-a-kind shops and restaurants. Gatekeeper Museum and its Native American basket collection are part of Truckee River Outlet State Park, as is the dam that controls the top six feet of the lake. 12 WINTER/SPRING 2023/24 | Lake Tahoe Visitor Guide
