The most iconic place to snowboard or ski in Lake Tahoe.

One of the more beautiful resorts in Lake Tahoe to go snowboarding and skiing. Heavenly is situated in South Lake Tahoe on the border of California and Nevada. This ski resort has an amazing view of the lake while going down, as well as one of the largest total areas to ski in Lake Tahoe.

I like with most places since the pandemic, this place is gotten pretty busy. One of the bigger ski resorts up in the area, but on the weekends, it can get pretty crowded. If you can manage to be up here during the weekdays, it’s a lot better. Let’s all share the slopes and be kind to each other. There’s plenty of mountain for everyone!

Stay at a casino and walk to the gondola!! Heavenly is a huge Mountian and is often crowded especially on the weekends. But luckily there are always places to shred with less people. There are five areas you can start from so depending on the day and conditions you can drive to a different parking lot in attempts to avoid the crowds. Most skiers here stick the groomed trails but if you know a local you can probably find some nice untouched pow during a dump. Heavenly is close to most locations in south lake so makes for a great half day ski if you can’t do first to last chair.

Bike the Van Sickle Bi-State Park Trail

Starting at the top of Stagecoach Lift on Heavenly Resort this trail wraps around the north slope down to the bottom of town at the casinos. It has amazing view all the way down as you make your way down the woods up top and then cruise through the burn area near the gondola fire down to the bottom. Full of fun rock sections, stair sets, and small rocks to jump off of. A great downhill bike tra...

Bike around Lake Tahoe

You'll want to wake up early for this adventure. Be sure to have breakfast and hydrate before you start. I suggest going clockwise around the lake. The elevation hit me. I also went with a group of friends, and what's nice about going in a group though is that you can stop every so often to make sure you're all with each other. The first 20 miles is uphill and hard. It was a lot of climbing. ...

Hike the Lam Watah Trail

Lam Watah Trail is a 2.2 mile out and back hike, that will take you through Lam Watah meadows and ends at Nevada Beach. I did the hike in December and although the best time to do it is May through October, I think it had more charm during the winter time. The trail head begins from the parking lot and goes through Lam Watah meadows for approximately 1.1 miles where it ends at Nevada Beach. In...

Catch a Sunset at Keys Beach

Owned by the State of California, Keys Beach sits at the end of a peninsula bordered by the Tahoe Keys marina inlet to the west and the Upper Truckee River to the east. This relative isolation along with its only access being by water or a single trail keeps the beach remarkably quiet relative to the surrounding "tourist" beaches, making it an ideal place to take in one of Tahoe's unparalleled ...
