Truckee
The “Gateway” to North Lake Tahoe, Truckee, is noted for its charming “historic downtown” and early days as a Railroad Settlement. Downtown Truckee’s elevation is 5,980 feet. Centrally located at the I80 and Highway 89 intersection, Truckee is within minutes of world–class skiing at Northstar-at-Tahoe, Alpine Meadows and Squaw Valley. Visit Commercial Row, Truckee’s main street, where you will find boutique specialty shops, excellent restaurants, art galleries and cozy hotels. The Southern Pacific Railroad depot is home to the local Chamber of Commerce where you will find lots of local and regional information and travel tips. Grab a map and take the self-guided historic Truckee walking tour and learn about the many historic homes, Truckee’s Old Jail, the Rocking Stone, Truckee’s oldest building – the I.O.O.F Hall, and more. You will experience Truckee as it was over a century ago. The beautiful Truckee River flows through downtown Truckee offering fly fishing, river rafting and the Legacy Trail for walking and biking. The Tahoe Truckee Airport is North Lake Tahoe’s only airport and just minutes from downtown Truckee. Truckee is also home to Boca, Prosser and Stampede reservoirs. Aside from the historic aspect of Truckee, it is one of fastest growing communities on North Lake Tahoe today with several new residential developments, Grays Crossing and Old Greenwood golf courses, a new Park and Recreation District facility with a full calendar of year-round events. Truckee has a “work hard, play hard” philosophy, attracting entrepreneurs who want the abundance of outdoor activities, a small town atmosphere, and easy access to bay area services.
