Winter may bring a quieter pace to the landscape, but recreation in Nevada County remains vibrant and active. We’re fortunate to live in a region where winter activities and events thrive—from Nevada City’s Victorian Christmas and scenic winter trails, to Grass Valley’s Cornish Christmas, to Truckee’s world-class snow sports, trail networks, and winter festivals.
Behind the scenes, important work continues. Throughout the winter months, partners across the South Yuba River Public Safety Cohort, the Nevada County Recreation Coalition, and the Pines to Mines Alliance have been hard at work strengthening collaboration, improving visitor safety, and advancing long-term recreation planning across the county.
Meanwhile, bridge projects at Hirschdale and along the Bear River are now underway, helping build safer, more connected, year-round recreation access for residents and visitors alike. Winter is for enjoying what we have and quietly building what comes next.
Warmly,
