If you’re heading to or from Tahoe from Sacramento and the Bay Area on Highway 50, consider a half-day outing on
Echo Lake, where you can rent a canoe, hike or take a boat taxi through snow-streaked scenery that will stick in your mind for weeks to come. For more scenic overload, pull off Highway 50 at Twin Bridges and check out gushing

Donner Lake is especially beautiful in fall when the mist rises over the water and leaves on the quaking aspens around its perimeter shimmer like golden coins.
