Summer Destination

This Is Where You Need To Be This Summer!

LAKE TAHOE

Lake Tahoe, situated on the border of California and Nevada, is a refreshing freshwater lake nestled in the Sierra Nevada Mountain range and is an ideal summer destination off the beaten path. Explore the Sierra by foot or by pedal, splash in turquoise water that's so clear it looks tropical, take a swing on manicured golf courses, and zip by boat or jet ski to secret coves.

Summer Sports: With stunning mountain vistas, meadows painted in wildflowers, and pristine alpine lakes, it is no wonder that one of the most popular Lake Tahoe summer activities is hiking. You can explore near Tahoe's south shore on mellow, scenic paths, or ascend into the Sierra when you hike on the Tahoe Rim Trail or into Desolation Wilderness. Emerald Bay, located on the west shore of Lake Tahoe, is a breathtaking sight to behold. With its mountainous backdrop, the bay boasts a stunning blend of greens, turquoise, and blues that shimmer in the clear, deep waters of the lake. You can rent a speedboat or jet ski and zip to Emerald Bay, soar over the lake on a parasailing adventure, take a scenic boat cruise on Ms. Dixie II, kayak or paddleboard along the shoreline to hidden beaches, or get your thrill on when you try wake-surfing and wakeboarding. The Lake Tahoe summer season is rife with biking opportunities. As a designated Bike Friendly Community, there are plenty of trails for every ability, from paved paths for social spins to single-track for downhill demons. Speed down heart-pounding trails and try to appreciate the mountain scenery as it whizzes past Corral Trail and the infamous Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. Golfing in Lake Tahoe comes with spectacular views of the Sierra Nevada Mountains and the waters of the lake. The iconic Edgewood Tahoe is an 18-hole golf course located near Stateline, Nevada on the South Shore of the lake with spectacular views of Tallac and its beachfront location.
