The biggest reason that folks strike out for this part of the country is the awe-inspiring scenery of the Sierra Nevada mountains and their surrounding lakes and rock formations. Visitors are certainly not disappointed by the Tahoe National Forest, which extends as far north as Yuba Pass and Sierraville and as far west as Nevada City.
The Tahoe National Forest offers camping, mountain bike and hiking trails, kayaking and alpine lakes, picnic areas and even fire towers to rent out on summer nights. Hunting and fishing is also allowed in parts of the Tahoe National Forest with appropriate tags and licenses.
