Keep on Truckee

Pedal the Truckee River Bike Path All the Way to Sparks in Reno Tahoe

The 12-mile Truckee River bike path cuts right through downtown Reno and goes all the way to neighboring Sparks. Along the route you should absolutely make some pit stop detours to enjoy one of Reno Tahoe’s top signature crafts: beer! Reno Tahoe has some of the West’s tastiest locally crafted brews, where you can also enjoy food (including kids’ menus) and other drinks (no-alcohol options are fresh on the menus).

Just east of Reno, in Sparks, Great Basin Brewery at Victorian Square makes a refreshing stop, especially if you like IPAs. Pair their famous “Icky” (Ichthyosaur) with beer-battered fish and chips.

There’s also Revision Brewing Company, named by USA TODAY as a great beer destination. While in Sparks, check out The Outlets and find some good deals on apparel.

BONUS: It’s not just brewpubs serving up deliciousness. Discover the wide range of food and drink spots in Reno Tahoe.
