5 days in South Lake Tahoe Itinerary

For shopping fun, head to Marcus Ashley Fine Art Gallery or Wyland Galleries. Get a sense of the local culture at The Way It Was Museum and Marshall Mint & Museum. Change things up with these side-trips from South Lake Tahoe: Genoa (Mormon Station State Historic Park & Genoa Courthouse Museum) and Silver Terrace Cemeteries (in Virginia City). There's lots more to do: tour the pleasant surroundings at Angora Lakes Climb, stroll the grounds of Genoa Cemetery, savor the flavors at Wine Tours From Tahoe, and enjoy the sand and surf at Nevada Beach Campground.
