Every May, the Reno River Festival signals the beginning of summer, as it has come to be recognized as the first big event of the warmer months. Events that have become synonymous with the Reno River Festival include a whitewater kayaking competition, a 2.5-mile two person relay called Run Amuck, and the very popular Biggest Little Homebrew Challenge where festival goers are encouraged to enter their home-brewed beer in a hotly competitive showcase.
Ready for something completely different? If you're comfortable in a rough and tumble atmosphere and want some great loud music and cold beer, then Davidson's Distillery is the perfect hangout for you. There's always music, whether on stage or from the jukebox, and bikers and other tough characters frequent what may be Reno's loudest best-kept secret.
Despite being in the middle of the desert, Reno offers some great opportunities for water recreation. The Tahoe Whitewater Tours is conveniently located near the bustling downtown hotel-casino and booming arts district. Lots of places to play including 11 pools for kayak fun, a kayak racing course and lots more.
