With its amazing overlook of Donner Lake and Rainbow Bridge, Donner Summit boasts the best of the beauty and scenery that only the Lake Tahoe area can provide. As you negotiate the turns up Old Highway 40, you will dream of the countless opportunities for hiking and rock climbing that is ahead. Moreover, some of the best downhill and Nordic ski areas are nestled here including Donner Ski Ranch, Soda Springs, Sugar Bowl, and North America’s largest cross-country ski area, Royal Gorge. If you crave more knowledge of the area, you can find that too at the Big Bend Visitor Center’s display on early emigrant history.
