Truckee Activities in the Winter

Truckee in the colder months is like a little slice of winter wonderland that just captivates you in its spellbinding wilderness and the activities that surround it. If you come to Lake Tahoe for sports, Truckee activities in the winter are just for you. Skiers and snowboarders experience Truckee’s things to do in winter through its many slopes and trails that maneuver them through the woodsy and mountainous setting. Ski trails in Truckee range from private courses to ones open to the public, so you can select which experience works best for you. If you’d prefer exploring less-elevated areas, cross-country skiing and snowshoes let you trek through the snow. Truckee things to do in the winter welcome skiers of all levels whether they’re beginners or pros, and private and group lessons are available for all ages and skill levels. When you’re ready for a fun twist on skiing, try a winter biathlon class that lets you spice up your typical ski style (we’re talking archery combined with skiing). And if you find yourself ready to jump into Truckee winter activities but missing or in need of some gear, fear not! Outfitters and rental companies are ready to equip you with everything needed for any Truckee thing to do you choose this winter.
