Thinking
about planning a Kirkwood
vacation? Kirkwood is a beautiful winter
destination and it is well-known for having some of the best skiing in Lake Tahoe – it gets huge amounts of snow every year! Kirkwood's definitely been growing in popularity over the
last few years, and while you might already be familiar with Tahoe ski resorts
like Heavenly and Squaw Valley, it's good to know that Kirkwood is now officially one of Tahoe's
"Big Six"! Kirkwood
is tucked away in north Tahoe, and a short drive from the lights and casinos in
south Tahoe. In other words, you'll be close enough to the nightlife action if
you like, but you'll also find yourself in the middle of a beautiful, snowy
wilderness without all the lights and distractions of south Tahoe. Looking for
a great mountain resort for your Kirkwood
vacation? You'll be able to find lodges, motels, hotels and cabins to suit you
and your family in and around Kirkwood.
You can also rent condominiums during your stay or purchase timeshares with all
the creature comforts of home. Traveling with kids or beginner skiers and
snowboarders? Kirkwood
is one of Tahoe's best places to learn! There are plenty of gentle slopes here
to easy novices into the fun of winter sports – as well as incredibly difficult
runs to challenge the pros. The town is mainly a winter-season destination,
though during summer, there's great hiking, mountain biking, and fishing as
well. Mountain biking fans should check out the trail called Mr. Toad's Wild
Ride near Kirkwood
during summer, spring or fall!
