Cool Temps, Cooler Experiences
Experiences in nature help you reset and feel refreshed. (The science proves it.) And fall on Lake Tahoe’s South Shore is the perfect time to find that reset — and all sorts of splendor-filled outdoor adventures too. Between the cooler weather, colorful leaves and wide-open spaces, this time of year is an outdoor enthusiast's dream.

Feel the Awe and then Some
Lake Tahoe isn’t just a destination — it’s a jaw-dropping, mind-blowing, awe-inducing experience (and then some). It leaves you happier, less stressed and more connected to the world around you. And, with the help of Dr. Paul Piff, Social Psychologist and Expert on Awe, along with his research team at the University of California, Irvine, we intend to scientifically prove it. Keep an eye out for all the fascinating, awe-filled findings from our Feel the Awe study as we seek to prove the physical and mental benefits of both awe and the South Shore. It’s going to be all sorts of Awe and then Some.
We should cherish and protect those places that bring awe about. That’s why we encourage locals and visitors alike to live the Rules to Lake By: five simple ways to keep Lake Tahoe clean, visit responsibly and ensure everyone feels welcome.
