Though winter is often seen as North Lake Tahoe’s top season for sports, the fact is that human-powered sports are available yearlong. Tahoe’s unique situation along the Sierra Nevada means that during the shoulder seasons, you can experience a true “Dual-Sport Day”—hitting the slopes in the morning and exploring Tahoe’s countless bike paths, lakeside or hiking trails in the afternoon.
North Lake Tahoe is unique in that it offers travelers the opportunity to experience snow and sunshine in one day. That means twice the adventure and half the travel.
2. Lush Landscapes and Lake Shores Will Clear Your Mind
