SECTION HEADER


Where the Southwest meets the

Northwest, you’ll find a destination

with a passion for living — Reno

Tahoe USA.

With its ideal location at the upper

reaches of the Southwest, just below

the start of the Northwest, Reno

Tahoe offers the best of both regions

— a beautiful high desert setting that

has more outdoor special events,

active sports, world-class spas,

breathtaking vistas and sunny days

than any other resort area in North

America. Even better, you’ll find it all

at extremely affordable prices.

But don’t just take our word for

it. Our area has been showing up

on dozens of “Top 10” lists from top

magazines and travel resources,

thanks to our great weather, upscale

resorts, outdoor activities, Lake

Tahoe beauty and incredible value.

We’ve highlighted some of our favor-

ites within this planner, so dive in

and immerse yourself in the beauty,

excitement and rip-roaring fun of

Reno Tahoe USA.

DIVERSE BEAUTY & OUTDOORS

Reasons to get away from it allWINTER. SPRING. SUMMER. FALL. We love each of them with

an equal measure of passion. And with the area’s 300 days of

sunshine a year, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to make

the most of each season. 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.

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

relaxing 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? Check out Basecamp, the

world’s tallest climbing wall at 164 vertical feet, at the incredible,

all-new Whitney Peak Hotel! Or go with the flow at the Truckee

River Whitewater Park, one of the premier destinations for free-

style kayakers … and the amazed spectators who like to watch

every spin, stall and flip from shore.

For an authentic Tahoe experience, head to Incline Village

on the tranquil North Shore, home of world-famous Sand

Harbor, a championship golf, awesome ski views and the

most stunning shoreline you’ll ever seen.

And if you really want

to elevate your experi-

ence, hop in a glider plane

at 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, upside down.

MAKE YOUR NEXT GETAWAY AN EVENTFUL ONE. Or rather,

event-full. If Reno Tahoe USA is your destination, attending

a great event is pretty much a guarantee. After all, there’s

an awesome one here every week celebrating the snow, the

sun and everything in between. With crowd-pleasers ranging

from the Street Vibrations motorcycle rally to The Great Reno

Balloon Race to Hot August Nights, the largest classic car

and nostalgia event in the U.S., you’re sure to find something

to rev you up.

Looking to break out of your comfort zone? Try the

Rockabilly Riot in June, the Lucas Oil Off Road Racing in August,

or the Virginia City International Camel Races in September.

If competing is your

thing, then we’re your

kind of 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 compe-

titions, including the Best

in the West Nugget Rib

Cook-off and Reno Bites

Week, and for you adven-

turous types, the Rocky

Mountain Oyster Festival.

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, concerts, come-

dians, 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 favor-

ite zombie, vampire or Santa.

The scene is always jumping! Grand Sierra Resort recently

unveiled LEX, their brand

new, 25,000 square-foot

nightclub that rivals any-

thing in the world. For

local flavor, check out the

booming Midtown and

Riverwalk Districts, with

distinctive favorites like St.

James Brasserie, Chapel

Tavern or Death & Taxes.

ARTS & CULTURE

Reasons to be inspiredFROM THE SURREAL TO THE SUBLIME, you’ll find art in all

forms here. The Riverwalk District in downtown Reno is home

to a thriving collection of artistic communities, shops, galler-

ies, theaters and social gatherings. There’s always an amaz-

ing new exhibit showcased at the acclaimed Nevada Museum

of Art, ranging from van Gogh to retro neon signs to Egyptian

artifacts. Best of all, it’s a quick stroll from downtown. Or

check out the National Automobile Museum — also just a short

walk away — home to one of the most prestigious car collec-

tions in the entire world.

Experience the talents of the Reno Philharmonic, Nevada

Opera and Reno Chamber Orchestra. Gather the family and

head to the Nevada Discovery Museum. Or hit the beach for

the unforgettable Lake Tahoe Shakespeare Festival.

Oh, and don’t forget the coolest party on the planet —

Burning Man. Once a year,

nearly 70,000 partici-

pants gather to be part

of an experimental com-

munity — Black Rock City

— in Nevada’s Black Rock

Desert just north of Reno

for this event filled with

art cars, fire dancers,

themed camps and origi-

nal art on an epic scale.

DAY TRIPS




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 switch-

backs of the Mt. Rose Highway (SR 431)

where, just past the summit on the way

to Incline Village, is one of the best over-

looks in the region. From there you can

head west to 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.

Pyramid Lake is one crazy-cool place.

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.

Cool in the CityEvery city has a few places that refuse

to blend in … like Reno’s Riverwalk and

Midtown districts. You never know what

you’ll discover in the shops, galleries,

coffeehouses, museums and restaurants

that line the river and the South Virginia

neighborhoods. Start your walking tour

at the Visitor Center i , photo bomb the

Reno Arch 1 , cruise the “streets” of one

of the top 5 car collections at the National

Automobile Museum 2 , explore the

Nevada Discovery Museum 3 and then

head south a few blocks to the Midtown

District 4 , Reno’s newest cultural hot spot

peppered with funky eateries and stylish

taverns. Next, visit the Nevada Museum

of Art 5 , check out the Truckee River

Whitewater Park 6 , and find yourself a

place to relax and partake in a meal along

the Riverwalk 7 .

VIRGINIA CITY

N

The Wild, Wild WestVirginia City wasn’t always the small,

ruggedly charming place it is today.

In its heyday, it was the largest city

between San Francisco and Denver.

Sample its charms by cruising the

boardwalk, taking a ghost tour, visiting

the historic Fourth Ward School Museum

and ambling through the Comstock

Wild Horse and Mining Museum. You’ll

also want to check out Carson City, the

capital of the Silver State, which is home

to the Nevada State Museum. Or enjoy

a stroll along the Kit Carson Trail and

explore Carson City’s landmarks and

stately Victorian houses. And don’t for-

get about the Nevada State Railroad

Museum, the Governor’s Mansion and

the Capitol.

LODGING

So you’re ready to conquer Reno Tahoe

USA? That’s great, but first you’re going to

need a base camp. From opulent to budget-

friendly, our offering of accommodations

will fit you just right.

There are plenty of great downtown

options like Eldorado Resort Casino, Silver

Legacy Resort Casino, Circus Circus Reno

and Harrah’s Reno. For downtown’s only

non-smoking and non-gaming offering,

check out the new Whitney Peak Hotel.

Or if you’re looking to venture beyond

downtown, consider the following:

JA Nugget in Sparks for beautiful Sierra

views and easy access to Victorian

Square; the Atlantis Casino Resort Spa,

which offers newly renovated rooms and

world-class dining; Grand Sierra Resort,

with its myriad upscale renovations and

never-ending options for entertainment,

shopping, dining and family fun; the

Peppermill Resort Spa Casino, with luxury

tower rooms and gorgeous pools; the

Hyatt Regency Lake Tahoe Resort, which

offers the Stillwater Spa as part of its

$20 million renovation; and the Cal Neva

Resort, which is in the midst of a multi-

million dollar renovation and set to reopen

in 2015.

If small-scale is your style, we have

unique riverfront hotels and limited

service inns. Don’t forget Incline Village

for its quaint inns and mountain retreats.

Whatever you choose, feel free to stake

your claim, raise your flag and make

yourself at home.

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.
