Summer

Summer brings hot days and cool nights – perfect for outdoor living in Nevada County!

Summer sports at the lakes and mountains

As summer warms the rivers and the snow melt slows, leisurely days along the South Yuba are a highlight for adults and children alike. The river is a perfect place to cool after an inspiring hike or mountain bike ride in the lush forests of the Sierras. The most accessible spots are at Edwards Crossing, Purdon Crossing, the 49er bridge or the historic covered bridge at Bridgeport.

Numerous lakes including Englebright, Rollins, Scotts Flat, Bowman and Spaulding offer boating, skiing, fishing, and kayaking.
