When is the Best Time to Visit Lake Tahoe?

The beauty of Lake Tahoe’s hiking routes is that most trails can be explored year-round with the proper gear! Most consider the summer months to be the best time to explore Lake Tahoe, but it is also the busiest time of the year! In the summer months, the high-altitude trails are mostly cleared of snow, the paths are teeming with wildflowers and the alpine water is refreshing! Summer excursions present awesome hiking, trekking, swimming, fishing, diving, and mountain biking opportunities—but be prepared for the crowds!

Winter expeditions to Lake Tahoe are equally as exciting and scenic. Most trails are transformed into epic snowshoeing, backcountry skiing, and even cross-country skiing routes. When exploring the area in the cooler months it is important to be mindful of increasingly dangerous terrain—often snow-cloaked and icy. Additionally, when venturing into the backcountry amongst the Sierra Nevadas, be aware of the threat of avalanches.

Open year-round, there is a sweet spot in the shoulder season when the trails are untouched, and the towns are quiet. Spring and fall adventures present the opportunity to enjoy the hiking routes in solitude, and accommodations in the area are usually cheaper. Note some campgrounds and roads close in the off-season, so your choice of stay may be limited!

Other Outdoor Activities near Lake Tahoe

Lake Tahoe is more than just a hiking destination, though there is no denying that there are some pretty epic treks in the area! With miles of backcountry to explore, Lake Tahoe and surrounding areas offer an abundance of outdoor activities to satisfy all sorts of outdoor enthusiasts!

Consider mountain biking up Incline Flume Trail, cross country skiing the Tallac Historic Site Loop, or snowshoeing the Fallen Lake Leaf Trail. Additionally, other recreational activities include backpacking, fishing, sightseeing, swimming, paddle boarding, off-roading, diving, skiing, and boating. Abundant with life in the summer and winter months alike, the crowds that flock to Lake Tahoe are a testament to the area’s beauty and limitless adventure pursuits.
