Let it snow, let it snow, let it SNOW.

Exploring Lake Tahoe during the captivating winter months delivers a dynamic array of activities that are just perfect for you and your furry companion.

Here’s how you can make the most out of your snowy getaway while incorporating a flexible stay for your dog at Truckee-Tahoe Pet Lodge.

  1. Enjoy Snowshoeing and Cross-Country Skiing

Lake Tahoe’s scenic trails are ideal for snowshoeing and cross-country skiing with your dog. The region’s vast network of options offers both you and your pet a chance to enjoy the breathtaking winter landscape together.

Ski Skate Week in North Lake Tahoe arrives mid-winter—February 17th to February 21st—and allows visitors and vacationers to enjoy a variety of activities including snowboarding, snowshoeing, skiing, ice skating, and tubing at the various resorts around the lake.

Before heading out, however, make sure your dog is equipped with ample paw protection against the cold and rough terrain​.

  1. Take Dog-Friendly Beach Walks

Sure, the shores of Lake Tahoe deliver awe-inspiring landscapes for a pleasant stroll – even in the winter. Places like the north section of Zephyr Cove offer a serene environment where your dog can frolic in the snow near the water, combining beach fun with wintry magic​.

  1. Visit Pet-Friendly Breweries

After a chilly day outdoors, unwind at local pet-friendly spots like Bear Belly Brewing in Kings Beach. Enjoy a craft beer while your dog relaxes by your side, making for a perfect end to a perfect day’s adventure​.
