Things to do in Truckee
Truckee began as a railroad and logging town on the Central Pacific line over Donner Pass, and its historic downtown still lines the tracks with brick and timber storefronts. Today it is the hub of North Lake Tahoe’s ski and mountain life, close to Palisades Tahoe, site of the 1960 Winter Olympics, as well as Northstar and Sugar Bowl. Private communities such as Martis Camp and Lahontan have made the area a major second-home market, and a growing number of residents now live and work here full time.

Palisades Tahoe
Host of the 1960 Winter Olympics, the resort combines two mountains linked by a base-to-base gondola, known for steep terrain, big bowls and a lively village.

Northstar California
Just south of Truckee, Northstar offers family-friendly groomers, terrain parks and a village with an outdoor ice rink, and becomes a lift-served mountain bike park in summer.

Donner Memorial State Park
On the shore of Donner Lake, the park’s High Sierra Crossing Museum tells the story of the Donner Party and the emigrants and railroad builders who crossed these mountains.

Historic Downtown Truckee
Commercial Row’s restored 19th-century buildings house restaurants, bars, outfitters and shops, and the Amtrak California Zephyr still stops at the depot.

Sand Harbor
On Lake Tahoe’s Nevada shore, granite boulders, clear turquoise water and sandy coves make this one of the lake’s best beaches, and it hosts a summer Shakespeare festival.
