It goes without saying that Palisades Tahoe is a destination for every time of the year, but it's also inarguable that the winter months infuse them with energy, natural beauty and no shortage of activities. Palisades Tahoe is known for its long, steep runs, so skiing and snowboarding steal much of the spotlight. There are also spots dedicated cross-country skiing grounds when snow starts covering the ground. The resorts host numerous winter activities that can be enjoyed by guests of all ages, including skating, hot chocolate sipped around the fireside, child-sized snowmobile rides and more all in a winter-wonderland setting.
