- Campground programs are designed for visitors of all ages and abilities who come eager to learn and excited to experience their public lands.
- Pop-up tables will be stationed across the forest with general information and friendly staff available to answer questions.
- Discovery hikes* are excursions for visitors interested in exploring areas of the forest they may not explore otherwise. These hikes are generally less than five miles, with some steep and uneven terrain.
- Interpretive walks* are intended for all ages, though participants should be able to walk up to two miles on mostly flat, uneven terrain.
Interpretive programs are an excellent way for visitors of all ages to learn about the local area while forming lasting memories and connections. These programs and activities support the U.S. Forest Service’s mission by providing recreation opportunities that will help facilitate understanding and appreciation for natural resources while fostering responsible land stewardship.
Tahoe National Forest’s interpretive programs have a wide variety of topics, including Leave No Trace, astronomy, fire safety, wildlife, cultural and natural history. Visitors are encouraged to plan ahead by visiting fs.usda.gov/goto/TahoeOnTour2024 for more program information and a schedule of events. All programs are subject to change due to inclement weather and staff availability.
