SOUTH LAKE TAHOE, Calif. — Get ready for a wild time as the Tahoe Institute for Natural Science (TINS), Great Basin Institute (GBI), and the USDA Forest Service Lake Tahoe Basin Management Unit (LTBMU) host Wild Tahoe Weekend!
Join them June 24-25 at Taylor Creek Visitor Center, just three miles north of South Lake Tahoe on Highway 89. Residents and visitors are invited to attend this free, fun, family-friendly event.
To kick off Wild Tahoe Weekend, TINS will host the Lake Tahoe Bird Festival on Saturday, June 24, from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m. The event includes hourly guided bird walks along the Rainbow Trail, visits with live birds of prey, information and presentations on migratory birds, games, crafts, a live falconer, and more!
The very next day, the LTBMU and GBI will host the Native Species Festival on Sunday, June 25, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. This festival is a great way to spend the day outdoors and learn about the many native plant and animal species of the Lake Tahoe Basin.
