The wildflowers are still putting on a spectacular show at higher elevations. Hikers and bikers can revel in the beauty of Sierra lupines and the fragrant peppermint wildflowers. Along the creeks, nature paints a vibrant scene with bright orange Indian paintbrushes, towering deep purple lupines, and cheerful yellow petals nestled among soft, leafy clusters affectionately called "mule's ears" by locals.

As the days grow consistently warmer, the Tahoe experience truly comes alive. Evening barbecues are the perfect way to unwind and enjoy the cooler hours of the day. Adding to the summer magic, Classical Tahoe has returned for its 14th season in Incline Village. Running from July 12th through August 10th, this annual event brings world-class jazz, opera, and orchestral performances to the region. Featuring elite musicians from renowned institutions like the Metropolitan Opera and the San Francisco Symphony, the festival also includes a family-friendly faire showcasing local student musicians alongside Classical Tahoe artists. It’s an event for all ages, inviting everyone to immerse themselves in the joy of music.
