Tour 1: Paddling Toward Sustainability
Come and explore "A Paddling Route through Paradise" with representatives from the Lake Tahoe Water Trail committee, Tahoe Adventure Company and the Wild Goose Restaurant. The Lake Tahoe Water Trail Project, initiated in 2003 by an all-volunteer group of people, was developed with a set of common goals aimed at creating an innovative new model for sustainable tourism in the Lake Tahoe Basin. Participants will paddle the blue waters of Lake Tahoe on a guided tour by Tahoe Adventure Company, known for their innovative Lodge to Lodge Kayak getaway along the Lake Tahoe Water Trail. The Tour will end at the exceptional, lakefront Wild Goose Restaurant, known for its Sustainability Initiative Programs in its building design and regional food movement. Participants will enjoy a hosted wine and cheese offering while learning about various sustainable applications.

I went kayaking today with a youth group I volunteer with, ages 10 to 14. We had a great time! The instructors were helpful and knowledgeable, and made everyone feel safe. We paddled out into Tahoe Lake individually, including a boat race, and then the kids got to swim (with their life vests) in the lake, or play games between the kayaks. The bottom wasn't more than 30 feet deep. We spent about 2.5 hours on the water. On the way in, we linked all the kayaks and paddled as a chain. Nice teamwork! Overall a great experience. I hope to return again. -Chris C.

We had a wonderful time in Tahoe - our guide was amazing! We will definitely be back and will be in touch for another adventure! Our guide was very encouraging and made us all feel so comfortable. The reservation clerk was also very helpful and pleasant...your staff is to be commended, everyone was friendly and went out of their way to encourage us and make our adventure the best. -Joan

Our Adventures

"We had a wonderful SUP day with Chase as our guide. We took off from Sandy Harbor on the longer paddle board trip with a last minute (day before) reservation. As newbies, we had a quick lesson in the basics and off we went. It was a great place to SUP because the water is crystal clear, the vistas breathtaking and our Chase shared lots of interesting facts to answer all our curiosities. Lunch on the beach after was peaceful and relaxing. Go for the longer trip! And enjoy it." Anna R.
