Lake Tahoe Vacation Guide

Lake Tahoe sits high in Sierra Nevada at the crook in the border between California and Nevada. The region is world-famous for its skiing and its nightlife. But Tahoe has many more dimensions for the active traveler. The region beckons hikers, bikers, anglers, paddlers, and all other manner of outdoor gal and guy. Once installed in one of the Sierra bascamp towns of Truckee, South Lake Tahoe, or Incline Village, you're in the groove to be wild and free in the mountains.
