ADVENTURES AT A HIGHER LEVELFeel the rocky soil beneath your feet, take a dip in an Alpine Lake and, of course, take time to smell the roses on Tahoe Trips & Trails spectacular hiking and multisport adventures in the most stunning places in the western United States.

Tahoe Trips & Trails ensures a travel experience that will exceed your every expectation. We scout each location and arrange every detail with our guests in mind. Expect the finest lodging and dining each area has to offer, and all of the arrangements, including airport pick up and drop off, will be handled by our exceptional adventure concierges.

As outdoor enthusiasts and guides, our mission is to provide fun and informative trips for all types of groups including individuals, families and corporations. Scheduled group trips include proven itineraries with just the right mix of activity and leisure time.

A BIT OF HISTORYTahoe Trips & Trails began with a passion for sharing the wonders of the natural world with others. Each adventure is designed to offer the best local flavor of the area whether you are trying stand up paddling for the first time, sampling Napa Valley’s finest or hiking “bucket list” trails. Professionals who are passionate about sharing the allure and beauty of the region with you guide each adventure.

In 2011 Tahoe Trips & Trails became part of The Cedar House Sport Hotel family. Nestled in the Sierra Nevada, in historic Truckee, CA, our award-winning boutique inn was influenced by our experiences in family run hotels in the European Alps. Aesthetically, we know hotels need to be warm and inviting, but they should also transcend the function of shelter into an experience. Today the combination of The Cedar House’s personal service and Tahoe Trips & Trails’ outdoor guiding expertise creates the ultimate vacation.

As a family owned business we offer something many large corporations cannot: Exceptional service with unparalleled friendliness and attention to personal details.
