Parks & Nature
This hike is a 1 hour drive from here and if you are headed to Tahoe it is about 2/3 of the way there. You can actually see the falls from the parking lot but if you would like to turn it into a hike it is 1.5 miles to the base of the falls and 2 miles to the top where there are 5 beautiful lakes. At the top is AMAZING! Facebook friends will be jealous of your photos.

Great little place to go for a hike and a swim, also fun to watch rock climbers and slack-line acrobatics on the weekend. Be careful in early summer there is at least one drowning per year in this location always younger people and out of towners.

This is where the Gold Rush started in 1849!!! A lot of history in this area, many original buildings and mining equipment. Really family friendly fun activities like gold panning and history museum tours, PLUS it is right along the beautiful American River.

Hangtown got its name from this popular lynching spot where during the gold rush thieves and criminals would be hung. This is where Hangmans Tree used to be and if you look up you will see a man still hanging from the building (he's fake)
