Aquatic Adventures

SPLASH ZONE! Consider that shimmering blue body of water just outside your door as your personal playground. Paddle, ski, sail, cruise—whatever floats your boat. Leave nothing in your wake but a great time. Yes, there’s something in the water that makes a visit to South Tahoe an opening to a whole new world of possibilities. So take the plunge. Get off to an exciting start with one of the many water activities available. Make waves with high-speed waterskiing and wakeboarding. Take the helm in a speedboat or sailboat. Paddleboard or kayak the Lake Tahoe Water Trail which circumnavigates the lake and has 41 launching stations.

Biking

BRING IT! Hop on two wheels—pedal your way through scenic vistas and take a slow ride along South Tahoe’s legendary trails. The famed loop around the lake—America's Most Beautiful Bike Ride—winds through 72 miles of breathtaking scenery that’s perfect for a leisurely tour with friends and family. Didn’t bring your own ride? There are plenty of bike shops staffed by experts who can fit you out

paths and beaches, the mountain bike for downhill trails and more rugged terrain, the tandem bike that’s ideal for couples, and the bicycle with a kid-carrier for little ones not ready for their own two wheels. And for experts? Pit yourself against the world’s top cyclists, who come here to train for the Amgen Tour of California. Tackle the downhill track of Saxon Creek Trail or watch your life flash before your eyes on the Death Ride, a grueling 129-mile gauntlet that includes five mountain passes with spectacular vistas. And if your Tahoe adventure has made you ready to move from a Huffy to a Harley, you’re in good company: Motorcycle buffs are often spotted on South Tahoe’s open roads.

Hiking & Running

TO NEW HEIGHTS Take your outdoor adventure to a whole new level: The hiking and trail-running are unbeatable. Stroll, wander, stride, grab a selfie with some amazing scenery. South Tahoe is crisscrossed by an extensive network of trails that wind through pine-scented woods and up slopes of glacier-carved granite. Take an easy loop along Lake Tahoe’s shoreline, visit a 100-foot waterfall or summit a 10,000-foot peak. Or maybe you want to try a more rugged experi-

ence. Grab a backpack and head out for a few days of sweet backcountry solitude. And if you have an appetite for mouthwatering vistas, spectacular views are found all along the 165 miles of the Tahoe Rim Trail. In winter, strap on your snowshoes and head out into the bracing chill to take in the gorgeous views of the lake—there’s always a hot toddy waiting for you when you get back. Where will you find the most dramatic vistas, the most spectacular waterfalls?

The region has several distinctive golf courses, each with its own challenging layout and gorgeous views.

Snowball Fight Flash Mob, or Snow Unicorn Contest (snowmen are played out, no?). You can even go snowshoeing or partake in a snowshoeing cocktail race, where participants try to reach the finish line all while balancing an adult beverage in their hand.

Vikingsholm Castle 530-583-9911 or 530-525-7277 sierrastateparks.org Situated on the shores of Emerald Bay, this castle is considered one of the best examples of Scandinavian architecture in North America. Open to visitors in summer. Virginia City 775-847-7500 visitvirginiacitynv.com Virginia City is known as the home of the Comstock Lode and one of the largest mining camps west of Denver. Today, its trusty wooden sidewalks carry visitors who come to see this real-life bonanza as well as the icons known around the world.

BLAST FROM THE PAST From the Pony Express to Gilded history and lore. Picture it: a 100-foot barge floating out on Lake Tahoe with a full orchestra entertaining the guests on board. No, it’s not the party scene from “The Godfather Part II.” It’s a flashback to the 1880s, when Lucky Baldwin’s opulent hotel–casino attracted the rich and famous to Tahoe’s shores. Today you can stroll the grounds of Baldwin’s former digs at Tallac Historic Site or enjoy a concert in the Boathouse Theatre with Lake Tahoe as the backdrop. Other historic sites include Vikingsholm Castle and Valhalla, a turn-of-the-century summer home. Close by is a mother lode of Western history at Virginia City, where Mark Twain started his career; the Mormon Trading Post in Genoa; the Nevada State Railroad Museum; and the capitol building in Carson City.
