  • Best stops on the road trip from San Francisco to both north and south Lake Tahoe.
    In this video, I share some of my favorite stops on the road trip from San Francisco to Lake Tahoe. Since people drive to both the north and south part of the lake I shared a bunch of stops that you could do going from either direction.

    I just started watching your videos and although I've been to a lot of places you've mentioned; I am so surprised to find out how many hidden gems were hiding right under my nose that I've driven by time & time again. Thank you so much for making these videos, not only are you showing us new places but reminding us of ones we haven't been to in a while and need to revisit!

    I was just in South Lake Tahoe this past weekend. I live in between San Francisco and Sacramento so it takes 2 1/2 to get there going 50.
    Emerald Bay is a beautiful spot where there's a small Island with ruins from a tea house. If you go further up the west side of the lake on 89 there are two mansions you can tour. Along the east side of the lake there are vistas you can take short walks to see more beautiful views.
    If you are ever in the area for the 4th of July, Lake Tahoe has amazing fireworks. You can see them from Kings Beach, Tahoe City, and South Lake Tahoe all at once.

    Hey Josh, another fine video. You couldn't have possibly covered all the sights as you covered a lot of territory. And you passed through one of my hometowns, Sacramento. Los Angeles is the other one. One thing about the Foresthill Bridge. It's so high because they planned to build a dam in Auburn back in the 1970's so most of that area would have been under water. The dam failed, I should say the dam idea failed. Lake Tahoe is a favorite weekend getaway for Bay Area and Sacramento travelers. Lots of fun.

    • @californiathroughmylens
      @californiathroughmylens  6 лет назад +1

      Thanks for the information about Foresthill, I had no idea about that. Would have been crazy to see the area if the water level was a lot higher for sure.

    We enjoyed your trip. What about the Belly Flops at the Jelly Belly Factory?? You left off the following going through Placerville: 1)history museum at Larson’s Apple Barn; 2) Side trip to Wright’s Lake / Ice House and the El Dorado Forest 3) Bridal Veil Falls off of Highway 50 in the spring 4) Echo Lake at Echo Summit 5) Finish all of this off with a good meal at Sprout’s Cafe in South Lake Tahoe! You left the following going through Auburn up Interstate 80: 1). Driving up to the top of Signal Peak near Soda Springs - great 4x4 trail - 11.1 miles - abandoned fire station, 2). Drive up highway 20 to a back road to Bowman Lake. You can actually take that road all the way up to another road that comes into Interstate 80 above Truckee. It is a beautiful back road - but again, it is best to have 4x4. Enjoy!!!

    • @californiathroughmylens
      @californiathroughmylens  6 лет назад +1

      I love the Belly flops, fun to get good jelly bellys for cheap just cause they are not perfect shape. Dang you gave me so many more great tips, I want to go on the drive again now! Appreciate it!

    An actual good quality video that mentions my hometown, Placerville, and I'm glad you actually pronounced it correctly too. Just also wanted to mention, we kinda hate when its Apple Hill season because there is so much traffic for like a full month and we're just trying to get home

      And, just up from Ikeda's, take Bowman exit off I80, go under freeway, turn right on frontage rd, pass elementary school, and watch for Machado's on the left, great produce and pies, including from their orchards and ovens.

    I’m just here to say San Fran and Lake Tahoe are both amazing places. But don’t call a 4 hour drive a road trip. That could easily be a day activity. Leave at 6 in the morning get there at 10 and leave at 6 at night. As long as you’re not slouching around 8 hours at Tahoe gets you a drive around the lake, a tiny hike and swim to emerald bay, a tiny hike up to angora and jump off the cliff and going out to eat. at the red waffle place.(I can’t actually remember what it’s called but it’s so fucking good)
