Other Facilities
Fairgrounds
The County Fairground complex is located off Highway 395, 2 miles down Pinenut Road. This 81-acre complex encompasses a number of wonderful features: rodeo arena with chutes and pens, a practice arena, 1500 seat grandstand, announcer booth, pavilion, horse barn, concession/restroom buildings and staging area.
Model Airplane Complex
This facility is located on the opposite side of Dump Road from the Fairgrounds. Just behind the Douglas County Animal Shelter, this 2-acre site has a 60x400 asphalt runway with taxiways for the sport of model airplane flying.
Douglas County Shooting Facility
The Douglas County Shooting Facility can be found at the end of Dump Road, (you guessed it) near the dump. Shooting areas contain shaded bench rests on concrete pads - you will need to bring your own seat and sandbags. The earthen berm for the pistol range is at 50 yards, while those for the rifle range are at 100, 200 and 300 yards.
Carson Valley Skate Facility
The Carson Valley Skate Facility is on Waterloo Lane, just west of US 395 and across from Lampe Park. This state-of-the-art facility boasts over 30,000 square feet of rails, roll-ins, 6' drop-ins, fun boxes, and an hour glass shaped bowl for the ultimate skating experience. Helmets are required at all times.
Round Hill Bike Path
Starting on Pineridge Road just off Kingsbury Grade and ending just behind the Sears building at Round Hill, The Round Hill Bike Path is 3.6 miles offering breathtaking views of Lake Tahoe from several vantage points.
