As mentioned earlier, other popular resorts include: Alpine Meadows, Diamond Peak, Northstar at Tahoe, Kirkwood Mountain Resort, Sierra-at-Tahoe, Boreal Mountain Resort on Donner Pass, Donner Ski Ranch, Homewood Ski Resort, Sugar Bowl Ski Resort, and Mount Rose Ski Resorts. Despite the wide availability of resorts, reservations are hard to get, so it is recommended that you book your stay well in advance to make sure that you can get the resort lodgings that you want.

Most of the ski resorts for the best in Lake Tahoe Skiing are located on the north end of the lake, closer to Truckee, California and Reno, Nevada. There are some located on the south side, which is about 80 miles from Reno. When people stay in Southern Lake Tahoe, they generally visit these three resorts and don’t bother visiting the north side of the lake because of the distance involved.

There are also a multitude of sled parks and snow tubing destinations for those who aren’t as adept at skiing or want a more fun and less technical experience. Snow tubing is very popular among alternative sports, and can be made into a great adventure for anyone. Lake Tahoe skiing isn’t the only winter sport. Snowmobiling, snowboarding, and snowshoeing are also very popular, with many places to enjoy these activities, as well.

One of the most enjoyable things skiers comment on and really enjoy, is the scenery around the lake at the various ski resorts. There really isn’t anything like skiing down a great slope and looking off in the distance and taking in the beautiful mountains and the deep blue of Lake Tahoe. And when the mountain peaks are all covered with snow in the winter, the scene is simply breathtaking.

Whatever you like to do skiwise, you will surely enjoy it on your next Lake Tahoe vacation.
