Truckee River Rafting

Rails-to-Trails Conservancy, a nonprofit organization working to establish a nationwide network of trails from former rail lines and linking corridors, supports the Truckee River Bike Trail, which is one of 1600 rail-trails supported by the group. This "rail-trail," which was once an abandoned railroad track, is now a terrific spot to walk Petzooie in Tahoe City! A parking lot with easy access to the Truckee River Bike Trail is shown on the map below.

Dogs are welcome to join you on a Tahoe City Kayak rental out on the water. Dogs are not permitted in the Tahoe City Kayak building, despite the fact that the rentals are pet-friendly. One dog owner will be required to travel with the rental and meet their canine companion and rowing partner at the public dock. Rates and hours vary depending on the type of rental. Online reservations are available. The shop is open from 9:30 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Thursday through Monday (closed Tuesday and Wednesday).

Dogs of all sizes are allowed to join you on the more than 8 kilometers of ski trails at Tahoe Cross Country. Although skijoring is not permitted on the trails, Petzooie can cross-country ski beside you and enjoy the snow. Although leashes are required at the parking lot and at the trailhead, your dog can enjoy the trail without one as long as he remains under your voice control.

The Tahoe City Public Utility District operates and maintains Skylandia State Park & Beach, a 24-acre California State Park. On Lake Forest Road, 1.5 miles east of Tahoe City, it is located. Skylandia Park offers biking, hiking, and picnics opportunities.
