Goodbye heat and hello alpine lakes and snowmelt rivers! With over 85 miles of lakefront shoreline between Donner Lake and Lake Tahoe, Truckee-Tahoe is home to fine white sand beaches and scenic piers. And the weather couldn’t be more consistently perfect! Sunny, warm skies invite you to relax and soak up the sun with a good book, fishing pole and a breezy drink. Splash around in the shallows with kids. Canon ball off a pier anyone?!

Looking for a fun way to get out on the lake besides classic waterskiing and wakeboarding? Try stand up paddleboarding or renting a kayak, hydrobike, or pedal boat! You’re bound to have a great time and you might see some interesting wildlife along the way. Keep your eyes peeled for osprey and bald eagles (ready to dive for fish from the sky) and beaver dams along the shoreline.

Explore Truckee-Tahoe’s most scenic terrain from the best seat on the trail. Horseback riding is a unique outdoor adventure and throwback to the cowboy days of Truckee’s history dating back to the 1800s. You’ll get a different perspective from the saddle, and the chance to cover much more ground than on foot. There are many options for day rides, including beginner and kid-friendly trips, making this one of our favorite summer activities for families.
Cool off in summer with a float down the Truckee River! Different sections of the river provide an adventure for everyone, from beginner floats to technical whitewater. The calmest section is from Tahoe City to River Ranch. Here, you can rent a raft and take a leisurely float without a guide. If you’re looking for a more exciting whitewater experience, book a guided trip with a rafting outfitter who will lead you through class II and III rapids on the Truckee River.
