Truckee

Truckee lies along the Truckee River in California’s Sierra Nevada, where pine-covered slopes and high mountain passes frame a town close to Lake Tahoe and Donner Pass. The historic downtown retains commercial buildings from the railroad era, reflecting Truckee’s development beside the route of the first transcontinental railroad. Nearby Donner Memorial State Park commemorates the Donner Party and the region’s overland-pioneer history. Today, Truckee is a practical base for skiing, hiking and lake access, while its compact center supports independent shops, galleries and restaurants.
