Discover Fun Things to do in Lake Tahoe in April or March!

Why visit Lake Tahoe in March and April? A better question is—why wouldn’t you? With unbeatable shoulder-season lodging rates, enticing dining and drink specials, and fewer crowds, spring is the perfect time to experience the best of both winter and summer adventures. The weather is warmer and more stable with longer days to enjoy the outdoors. Imagine starting your morning with exhilarating spring skiing on perfectly softened corn snow, then transitioning seamlessly to a mountain bike ride on sun-kissed trails. Follow that with an afternoon rock climb at a local crag, and cap off your day with a scenic trail run or a peaceful stroll along the Tahoe Legacy Trail. Prefer a more leisurely pace? Golfing and paddleboarding are also in season. With abundant sunshine, mild weather, and endless opportunities for adventure, March/April in Tahoe is nothing short of spectacular.
