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 spe-

cial event that truly lives up to its

name. or at one of our world-class

spas, showrooms, rivers, lakes, muse-

ums or fairways.

for some, the main reason for

coming here is our famously epic ski-

ing and snowboarding. for others, it

may be the slightly eccentric camel,

ostrich and zebra races. but no mat-

ter what the reason — or the season

— there are over a thousand ways

to pursue your passions in northern

nevada’s high desert playground.

Reasons to get away from it allwinTeR. 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 bud-

get and a wide range of

terrain — from high desert

beauty to storybook for-

ests — you’re just a chip

shot away from an unfor-

gettable day on the links.

SUnny DayS300 days of sunshine! yep, that’s the average num-ber 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, board-ing, hiking, river rafting, golfing, horseback riding. Well, you get the picture.

DiveRSe BeaUTy & oUTDooRS

Reasons to slap on some SpFwheTheR yoUR iDea oF The peRFecT Day is hopping from

boulder to boulder over pristine blue-green tahoe waters or chill-

ing 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

stunning shoreline you’ve ever seen.

And if you really want

to elevate your experience,

visit soaringnV in nearby

minden. its tours range

from gentle and peace-

ful 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’s-

eye 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 competi-tive kayakers to call their playground.

attending a great event is pretty much a guarantee. After

snow, the sun and pretty much everything in between. with

crowd-pleasers ranging from the street Vibrations motorcycle

something to rev you up.

looking to break out of your comfort zone? try lucas

June or the Virginia City international Camel Races

in september.

if competing is your

thing, then we’re your

kinda place. from rac-

ing airplanes to off-road

vehicles to outhouses,

you’re sure to find some-

one or something to

cheer on. plus, there’s

always an appetite for

food competitions, in-

cluding the best in the

Reasons to cheer

evenTS & FeSTivalS

hoT aUgUST nighTS The largest classic car and nostalgia event in the u.s., which includes dozens of concerts, cruises, drag races, snow ‘n’ shines, sock hops and so much more is just the tip of the events iceberg. With multiple events every week of the year, there’s no such thing as boredom. Just a hefty help-ing of something for every-one — or lots of somethings, should we say.

enTeRTainmenT & nighTliFe

Reasons tostay up past yourbedtimeheRe in Reno we have a TenDency To STay Up all nighT, anD why noT? with 24-hour gaming action, con-

certs, 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

a single outing. we even

have themed crawls so

you can dress up as your

favorite zombie, vampire

or santa.

the scene is always

jumping! in 2014, grand

sierra Resort will unveil a

brand new, 25,000 square-

foot nightclub that will

rival anything in the world,

the perfect blend of ele-

gance and excitement.

for local flavor, try st.

James brasserie, Chapel

tavern or death & taxes.

Reno iS one oF The woRlD’S SUpeR-coolcommUniTieS TravelorMove.com listed Reno as one of the World’s super-Cool Communities. With an abundance of stellar restaurants and upscale bars in the booming Midtown and Riverwalk districts, plus a wealth of casinos that boast cool bars, hot headlin-ers and 24-hour action, who are we to argue?

into the Bluemark 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.

dissolved minerals in the water have

formed the area’s fanciful rock forma-

tions, including the towering stone pyra-

mid 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 fish-

ing 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.

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 tak-

ing 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 air-

port. A mere 40-minute drive gets

you to one of the world’s most spec-

tacular recreational natural wonders –

lake tahoe. we don’t have that major

metropolitan traffic congestion and

unlike many other destinations, park-

ing 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.

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 east-

ern 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.
