Find Your Passion
©scott barnett
There’s a thing called “passion” that naturally thrives in a place we call Reno Tahoe USA. Maybe you’ll find it on one of our magnificent mountains. Or at a special event that truly lives up to its name. Or at one of our world-class spas, showrooms, rivers, lakes, museums or fairways. For some, the main reason for coming here is our famously epic skiing and snowboarding. For others, it may be the slightly eccentric camel, ostrich and zebra races. But no matter what the reason — or the season — there are over a thousand ways to pursue your passions in northern Nevada’s high desert playground.

Reno Tahoe USA Getaway Planner
Diverse Beauty & OUtdoors
Reasons to get away from it all Winter. Spring. Summer. Fall. We love each of them with an equal measure of passion. For you winter worshippers, we boast the largest concentration of ski resorts in all of North America, plus an après-ski tradition as legendary as the slopes themselves. Whatever your tool for carving up the mountain — ski, board, snowshoe, snowmobile, sleigh or tube — Reno Tahoe USA has the perfect terrain for you. When the white stuff melts away, that’s the perfect time to dust off your hiking boots, pack a summit picnic and climb to the top of 10,776-foot Mount Rose. Another way to conquer the great outdoors? Rent a mountain bike or bring your own and take on the Flume Trail, arguably the most stunning bike

ride on the planet. If you love to fish, grab your reel and claim
your own piece of paradise on the stunningly beautiful Truckee River (it’s especially gorgeous during autumn when the trees are exploding with color). Or grab your golf clubs and take advantage of the thin mountain air for what may be the longest drives and best game of your life. With championship courses to suit every budget and a wide range of terrain — from high desert beauty to storybook forests — you’re just a chip shot away from an unforgettable day on the links.
Sunny days 300 days of sunshine! Yep, that’s the average number of bright days awaiting you in the high desert of Reno Tahoe USA. And those sunny skies mean you can enjoy all of those outdoor activities like skiing, boarding, hiking, river rafting, golfing, horseback riding. Well, you get the picture. visitrenotahoe.com

Diverse Beauty & OUtdoors
Reasons to slap on some SPF Whether your idea of the perfect day is hopping from boulder to boulder over pristine blue-green Tahoe waters or chilling barefoot on a blanket in downtown’s Wingfield Park as you listen to reggae on the river, you’ll find it all in Reno Tahoe USA. By land, sea or air, our great outdoors is greater than most. Ready for a boost of adrenaline? Then check out BaseCamp Climbing. Located in the heart of downtown Reno, it features the world’s tallest climbing wall at 164 vertical feet! Or check out some of our exotic residents (ligers, anyone?) at Sierra Safari Zoo, home to more than 200 animals that you can pet, feed and play with up close. For an authentic Tahoe experience, head to Incline Village on the tranquil North Shore, home of world-famous Sand Harbor, championship golf, awesome ski views and the most
visit SoaringNV in nearby Minden. Its tours range from gentle and peaceful flights over the Carson Valley to the “Tahoe Wild Ride,”
featuring
loops,
rolls and inverted flight. So you’ll be one of the very few people on the planet who can say they’ve seen Lake Tahoe … from a bird’seye view … upsidedown.

A Kayak Park in Downtown Reno What? You’ve never heard of a kayak park? Picture the beautiful Truckee River, which flows right through downtown Reno, but with frothy rapids and pools for both freestyle and competitive kayakers to call their playground.

After all, there’s an awesome one here every week celebrating the snow, the sun and pretty much everything in between.

entertainment & nightlife
Reasons to stay up past your bedtime Here in Reno we have a tendency to stay up all night, and why not? With 24-hour gaming action, concerts, comedians, bars, clubs, stage shows, ultralounges and more, who can blame us? Needless to say, it’s a good idea to grab a power nap before you hit the town … because it may be the only sleep you get! For concert-lovers, there’s always a great show getting ready to crank the volume up to 11, including free shows throughout the summer at Rollin’ on the River in downtown Reno or the weekly Sparks Farmers’ Market on Victorian Avenue. Take part in a monthly wine walk or pub crawl that lets you sample several downtown and midtown bars in

Reasons to hit the road
day trips — lake tahoe
Into the Blue Mark Twain called Lake Tahoe “the Jewel of the Sierra,” and many think of it as America’s most beautiful drive. You can begin your journey anywhere along the loop, but you might want to start by heading up the sweeping switchbacks of the Mt. Rose Highway (SR 431) where, just past the summit on the way to Incline Village, is one of the best overlooks in the region. From there you can head west to interests like Tahoe City’s Fanny Bridge, the Gatekeeper’s Museum and the best lazy-day river rafting around. Or continue south to The Shops at Heavenly Village, a paddleboat cruise on the lake and hiking at world-famous Emerald Bay.

day trips — pyramid lake & gerlach
Desert Day Tripper Pyramid Lake is one crazy-cool place. Dissolved minerals in the water have formed the area’s fanciful rock formations, including the towering stone pyramid on the eastern shore, that give the lake a look that can only be described as “exotic.” Pyramid is a component of the National Scenic Byways Program and also happens to be a classic spot for fishing and boating. Head north from there to visit Gerlach, a small desert town that’s the gateway to the Black Rock Desert, home of the Burning Man festival and a beacon for speed freaks. In 1997 on the flat playa, an over-amped hybrid of rocket and racecar became the first land vehicle to crack the speed of sound.

day trips — carson city & Virginia city
The Wild, Wild West Virginia City wasn’t always the small, ruggedly charming place it is today. In its heyday, it was the largest city between San Francisco and Denver. Sample its charms by cruising the boardwalk, taking a ghost tour, visiting the historic Fourth Ward School Museum and ambling through the Comstock Wild Horse and Mining Museum. You’ll also want to check out Carson City, the capital of the Silver State, which is home to the Nevada State Museum. Or enjoy a stroll along the Kit Carson Trail and explore Carson City’s landmarks and stately Victorian houses. And don’t forget about the Nevada State Railroad the Capitol.

Reasons to leave your worries behind
photo courtesy of Spa atlantis — voted one of the top ten spas in the world
A passion for music. A passion for great food. A passion for sunshine. A passion for winning. There are plenty of different passions to go around here, but one thing we’re pretty sure everyone’s passionate about is taking it easy. Reno Tahoe is the perfect escape because we’re so convenient and worry-free in so many ways. There are 15,000 hotel rooms within five miles of the city center, and the Reno-Sparks Convention Center rests just five minutes from the airport. A mere 40-minute drive gets you to one of the world’s most spectacular recreational natural wonders – Lake Tahoe. We don’t have that major metropolitan traffic congestion and unlike many other destinations, parking isn’t a nightmare. In other words, we make it easy to get around, so you can spend less time en route and more time pursuing your passion. To help you on your journey, we’ve even provided some handy maps on the following pages … so you can get to the good stuff even faster.

Reasons to start packing your bag Check out a list of airlines serving the Reno-Tahoe International Airport by going to VisitRenoTahoe.com and clicking on “Getting Here.” If you’re hitting the road to get here, Reno and Sparks are located at the junction of Interstate 80 and U.S. 395/I-580. I-80 provides all-weather access across Donner Summit from central and Northern California. From Southern California, it’s a straight shot up U.S. 395 along the dramatic eastern front of the Sierra Nevada. From the northwest, take I-5 south to I-80 or, in the spring and summer, opt for the scenic shortcut that leaves I-5 at Mount Shasta and follows California 89 and 44 southeast through Susanville. A third option is Amtrak’s California Zephyr, which arrives daily from the Bay Area and Sacramento to the west and Salt Lake and Denver to the east. Trains from the Northwest, coastal Southern California and the Central Valley connect to the Zephyr in Sacramento.
