Adventure Starts Here

Our Motel office is a library of hiking, biking and other outdoor information with free maps of trails and river swimming holes.

With hiking and mountain bike trails starting from the Outside Inn’s central location, let us point you in the direction. Fall is a great time to check out the fall colors, winter is a fun time to play in the nearby Tahoe National Forest, Spring brings wildflowers to the South Yuba River and Summer is our busiest season of all.

During the summer months we know the choice spots on the South Yuba River to swim and relax for the day. Or maybe you want to take the dog for a hike or the kids for a SUP adventure. There are adventures for every member of the family in the nearby Tahoe National Forest.

Or maybe you want to participate in any one of the amazing events in our community, a festival, a concert, the local Farmers Markets, an outdoor adventure, a wine tasting event, you name it and Nevada County has something to offer you.

The Outside Inn is the perfect place to visit while in Nevada City.
