Lake Tahoe Ski Holiday Packages
Nestled in the majestic Sierra Nevada mountain range, Lake Tahoe boasts several world-class ski resorts within a short drive. The largest is Heavenly Ski Resort, which features around 7.5 square miles of skiable terrain spread across the Nevada-California border. Ski two states in one day and then experience the resort's electric après-ski scene at Unbuckle in the Tamarack Lodge. After a challenge? Check out Kirkwood Mountain Resort. Its terrain variety and challenging runs make it a magnet for daredevils. Drop cliffs, launch off cornices and try your luck on The Wall, Kirkwood's most difficult run. Adult daily passes here start from $US103 (around £88). Another top Lake Tahoe ski holiday package option is Palisades Tahoe. Host of the 1960 Winter Olympic Games, it has over 170 trails for all abilities. If you're new to skiing, the Big Blue Zone's gentle slopes are ideal for beginners. For family fun on the snow, check out Northstar California Resort, which offers a ski school, Kids Adventure Zone and cool activities including snow tubing and snowshoeing.
How To Get Around
Get your winter getaway off to an easy start by picking up a hire car at Reno-Tahoe Intl. Airport (RNO). From the airport, it's around a one-hour drive (50 miles) to Tahoe City. If you're planning to hit the slopes of Heavenly Ski Resort on the south side of the lake, expect another hour or so on the road. Keep in mind that travel time can vary due to weather conditions. Also, snow tyres or chains are required when indicated by highway signs.
Lake Tahoe Things to Do
Lake Tahoe has plenty of activities and attractions to keep you entertained when you need a break from the slopes. Get a glimpse into the area's history at Gatekeeper's Museum in Tahoe City, check out the exhibits and memorabilia at Olympic Museum in Olympic Valley and let young imaginations run wild at KidZone Museum in Truckee. If weather conditions are favourable, take a scenic drive to Inspiration Point for spectacular views of Emerald Bay State Park, historic Fannette Island and Vikingsholm Castle. Bundle your flights, hotel and a hire car into a Lake Tahoe ski holiday package and discover what this exciting destination has to offer.

Choose a hotel near the lifts and nursery slopes to save a whole lot of ski-carrying hassle in the mornings. With all that extra time and energy, you can take your sweet time to find a family-favourite bolthole on the mountain for hot chocolate with marshmallows ski breaks.
