Tahoe City Wine Walk, Saturday, June 20, 2015

It’s here! The official Tahoe City kick-off of summer with the 10th annual Tahoe City Wine Walk Event this Saturday, June 201, 2015 in downtown Tahoe City, California!

This is one of my favorite events in the area, and this year I will once again take the day off to participate in the Tahoe City Wine Walk with Sandy, Jan, and a half-dozen other wonderful women who have decided this is the way to celebrate the Summer Solstice and the official beginning of summer!

If you enjoy shopping and wine tasting then this is the perfect event for you in beautiful Lake Tahoe!

Every year we start our summer off with the i the greater Tahoe area by enjoying the Tahoe City Annual Wine Walk this year on Saturday, June 20, 2015 and we’ll plan on ending it by going to the fall Annual Truckee Wine Walk event, which will happen on October 3, 2015 this year. Between the two wine walk events you’ll enjoy nothing but sunny, fun summer Tahoe days!

This year starting at noon, there will be over thirty (30) different wineries, plus two different tea companies, beer and cider companies, along with a vodka and tequila/sangria sampling opportunities.

In addition to the beverages, there will be different food tasting locations set-up through-out the downtown area of Tahoe City from some of the area’s best restaurants. Tahoe City Wine Walk, Saturday, June 20, 2015 So if you’re a “Foodie”, and enjoy sampling fine beverages, along with shopping then you’ll want to take advantage of this years’ event specials, sip, sample, and learn more about being in downtown Tahoe City, California!

Last year over 800+ Tahoe City Wine Walkers enjoyed this great event. I’ve gone the past three out the last four years, with this year being my fifth year of fun.

I can tell you from personal experience it’s a lot of fun to go up and down main street sipping, sampling, and reminding yourself about how great the downtown Tahoe City area is during our summer season and why we love the Tahoe lifestyle so very much here!

Here are my Tahoe City Wine Walk participant tips from past years that will help you really enjoy the event:

1) Comfortable Shoes – Yes, shoes are out fashion statement piece, but you’ll want to only wear comfortable walking shoes! By the time the day is over you will easily have walked between 1 -2 miles if you hit every station. You’ll either start down at the North Lake Tahoe Visitors Center and end up at the Boat Works Mall, or do the reverse. You will zig and zag, and/or double back, so you’ll get your exercise in for the day. You will see Tahoe City from end-to-end! Smart, sensible, comfortable foot fashion is what will win the day here!

2) Designated Driver – Plan ahead and have a designated driver, or just call a cab to start your trip off right. Other options: The bus TART (Tahoe Area Rapid Transit), a friend, or walking. No bikes. Riding a bike while intoxicated can be just as dangerous as driving a car, and you can be ticketed for it.

3) Wear Layers & Sunscreen -. The weather forecast is for sunny, clear skies and temperatures in the mid-80’s – yeah! While it will be sunny and warm, but bring a light jacket just in case and wear your sunscreen! You’ll be outside for 4+ hours, so be prepared for a day in the sun!

4) Hydrate – Drink plenty of water as you go along the way! It’s fun to sample the wine, but before you know it time will have slipped by, so hydrate as you move from stop to stop.

5) Pace Yourself – Remember you’re doing the Tahoe City Wine Walk at an elevation of 6,200+ feet above sea level, so pace yourself! Grab a seat whenever possible, drink plenty of water, don’t get too much sun on yourself, and take it easy. You’ll want to enjoy Sunday as much as you enjoyed Saturday here in North Lake Tahoe!
