Mt. Charleston is extraordinary any time of the year, with each season unveiling its own unique grandeur. This exciting tour takes you through the Toiyabe National Forest, into a majestic alpine setting. A stop at the charming, Mt. Charleston Lodge, nestled amid a forest of ponderosa pines, is spectacular. Views of the jagged, towering cliffs, encompassed by the fir, spruce and aspen trees makes this landscape simply gorgeous. Descending through Kyle Canyon, we venture off the highway for an excursion through the desert that exposes the true natural beauty of this one-of-a-kind region. Temperatures are approx. 20-30 degrees cooler. Layered clothing is recommended.
