A perfect day at a perfect beach, like Camp Richardson, Round Hill Pines or Zephyr Cove. Rent a Jet Ski or take a cruise on any one of our local boats from authentic paddlewheeler to vintage yacht or sailing cruise, the choices are endless. Chase 18 at Edgewood or on a course that winds its way around the Lake’s shore. The view from 10,881 feet in the sky atop Freel Peak. The satisfaction of circling Tahoe on a road bike. Your relaxed reflection in the shop window as you drift from store to store...Summer in South Lake Tahoe is a kaleidoscope of joyful pleasures, bathed by a sun that shines an average of 300 days a year.

Winter

Sparkle. Welcome to the snow kingdom. Like a messenger sent from the heavens, that first flake of snow signals the beginning of an annual miracle. Ski resorts with names like Heavenly and Kirkwood and Sierra-at-TahoeÂŽ begin the mountain ritual of welcoming skiers and boarders. Sledders and sleigh-riders discover joy in simply sliding over the whiteness, while those piloting snowmachines or snowshoes take to the trees in their quest for adventure. Descend upon Lake Tahoeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s South Shore for a variety of pro skiing and snowboarding events. In the evening, the action goes indoors with nightclubs, big name entertainers and dining choices too endless to count.

Our best side is outside. In the warm days, you’ll find it easy to navigate hikes to spectacular waterfalls and pristine beaches. The biking paths and trails lead you around the Lake, into the woods and back again. Golfing takes you to courses that both challenge and awe. In winter, it’s all about snow. Snowmen come to life, while new skiers and snowboarders can learn a sport that will give them a lifetime of pleasure. And no matter the season, the multitude of outdoor events will keep you entertained. Check the events calendar on pages 10 & 18, or visit TahoeSouth.com for dates and details.

How big will you go? Challenging yourself in South Lake Tahoe’s storied outdoors will quickly help define your personal pucker factor. The rock climbing offers up granite cracks and thin faces, while the mountain biking begs the question: Just what is considered rideable terrain? For the road cyclist, bring your A-legs for the climbs and breathtaking (literally) mountain scenery. Water skiers, wakeboarders and personal watercrafters are welcome to consider Lake Tahoe their own personal playpen. And finally, for the skier and snow boarder, the on- and off-piste pleasures are limited only by the ability to navigate down their chosen line.

Weddings

Begin. There are the obvious reasons a couple would choose Lake Tahoe’s South Shore for their union. Few natural wonders can so elegantly grace wedding photography like Lake Tahoe and its blue water, colorful meadows and soaring peaks. Ceremonies and celebrations that follow can take place at venues such as Zephyr Cove Resort, Round Hill Pines Beach, Edgewood Tahoe and Camp Richardson Resort, or aboard an elegant yacht like the Tahoe Bleu Wave or the Tahoe Paradise or even on a Mississippi-style paddlewheeler. If you can dream it, we can make it happen. Because we host so many diverse weddings, qualified planning professionals are plentiful. For a wealth of wedding resources, visit TahoeSouth.com

SOUTH SHORE HISTORIC AND CULTURAL HERITAGE SITES Tallac Historic Site www.fs.fed.us/r5/ltbmu/ recreation/tallac 530-541-5227 Former site of the 100-yearold Tallac Resort. In its days of glory, the resort included two large hotels, a casino, and numerous annexes and out-buildings. Today the site is home to the Valhalla Arts, Music and Theatre festival.

Vikingsholm Castle vikingsholm.org 800-777-0369 530-525-7277 Considered one of the finest examples of Scandinavian architecture in North America, Vikingsholm Castle sits on the shore of Emerald Bay with astonishing views of Lake Tahoe. Built in 1929, according to the will of Lora J. Knight, a wealthy Chicago widow who purchased this then-isolated site and had it constructed into a Norse fortress from 800 A.D., Vikingsholm represents a unique blend of art and history.
