What to do and see in Lake Tahoe (California), Lake Tahoe (California): The Best Ski & Snow Tours

July 11, 2021 Malia Yoakum

Basking in its 300 days of sunshine, Lake Tahoe is a haven for outdoor fun in every season. Swimming, kayaking and windsurfing are popular in the summer months, while epic snowfall makes for spectacular skiing in winter. For those who prefer indoor fun, there's plenty of that in Tahoe, too. With 24-hour casinos and a flashy nightlife scene, the area has a tangible Vegas vibe. A sprinkle of bling, if you will. Not surprising, since Lake Tahoe straddles the border between California and Nevada.

Amazing snowmobile tour! The whole operation is well organized, professional and best of all - FUN! The scenery on the trail was beautiful and the view from the peak was spectacular. The guides were professional and fun and made the trip enjoyable for every comfort level of riding. I can’t imagine a better snowmobile tour! We will do it again next time in Tahoe.

Coldstream Adventures

Reviewed By smorge86

My wife and I recently stayed in Tahoe for our honeymoon and unbeknownst to us, we were 'in between seasons'. A lot of the snow activities were limited, but thankfully, Coldstream was still offering snowmobile tours. Because of the slow season, we were the only ones signed up for the afternoon session and essentially got a private tour! We enjoyed amazing scenery, points of interest from our knowledgeable guide Shannon, an experience that was both fun and challenging. My only suggestion to them would be to get machines that don't put out so much exhaust - being behind someone, you do inhale a lot!

Squaw Valley Ski Area

Voted at North America's best ski resort for three years in a row and host of the 1960 Winter Olympics, the Squaw Valley legacy has maintained a vibrant ski culture and mountain energy that spans from village to peak. Its spirit of outdoor adventure is reflected by the views of Lake Tahoe’s translucent waters, and its inspiration is carved into the slopes of the Sierra mountains. Beginners will find forgiving learning zones set among dramatic alpine scenery, while varied trails, bowls, and chutes mean that advanced skiers and snowboarders will never outgrow Squaw’s progressive terrain. With consistent snowfall that stays around well into the spring (and sometimes summer!), Squaw Valley boasts one of the longest ski and snowboard seasons in the country. Visit your favorite Lake Tahoe ski resort today!
