Things to do in Reno
Take a photo at the Reno Arch
As one of the most famous local landmarks, it has become something of a rite of passage for visitors to have their photograph taken by the neon lights of the Reno Arch. Situated on Virginia Street, the ‘Biggest Little City’ sign has been an icon here since 1962.
Nevada Museum of Art
Housed in an eye-catching building inspired by black rock desert formations, this museum boasts an incredible collection of modern landscape photography and images from the American West. Be sure to visit the sky room function area, complete with stunning rooftop terrace, for some of the most amazing views of the city.
Downtown Whitewater Kayak Park
Kayak, canoe or boat through the Reno city center along the Truckee River. Whether you choose to hurtle down the class 2 and 3 rapids, float leisurely down the water or go river tubing for the first time, this is one of the most exciting ways to experience the city.
