Beyond the beaches and trails, these are the landmarks worth building a day around.
Tahoe's most photographed view — a glacial bay with the lake's only island, and a 1929 Scandinavian mansion at the water's edge.
A dramatic volcanic outcrop on the East Shore — sacred to the Washoe Tribe, tunneled by the highway, and stunning to explore.
A 1930s stone estate on the East Shore with a secret tunnel and legendary wooden yacht — tour by reservation from Incline.
Ride to a 9,100-ft observation deck for the single most expansive view of the entire lake — summer and winter.
Professional theater in a beach amphitheater at Sand Harbor — July and August bring classics with the lake as backdrop.
The North Shore's state-line corner where vintage casinos and Rat Pack history meet some of the best lake views.
The sobering and fascinating story of the Donner Party, an excellent museum, and the pretty shoreline of Donner Lake.
String these stops together with beaches, trails and meals into one great Tahoe itinerary.
