Nordic Skiing Mecca

Site of the largest cross-country ski resort in the U.S.

• Royal Gorge – and seven other resorts and venues

  has become a cross country skiing Mecca. New is the
  reconstructed 1960 Winter Olympic cross-country trails at

Take A Break from Downhill

Because some of us don’t ski and others may need a break

from the downhill stuff, North Tahoe has many non-skiing

activities, including spa, gaming, snowmobiling, ice-skating,

snowshoeing and sledding.

Soak Up All That Mountain Culture

Home to generations of pioneers and western-bound

settlers, as well as the site of the 1960 Winter Olympics,

North Tahoe’s got a bounty of history. Historical sites are

many and include museums and resorts.

It’s Easy to Get Here

Tahoe, offers dozens of flights daily from Southern California.

you off at your property’s doorstep.
