Visiting

Something to keep in mind – Plumas is quite the hidden rural gem, emphasis on “rural”. Fiber internet only became available near the main cities within the last couple of years, and it’s typically no small expense for property owners to install the “last mile” – the only other option for internet is typically satellite, which is slow, inconsistent, and has low data caps!

Because of this, it can be difficult to find a plethora of information when planning for a trip or looking for info beyond the easily-found basics! There are many businesses and attractions that don’t advertise online, and do just fine by word of mouth and repeat visitors.

This page is intended to be a collection of links and quick info to a variety of other things in Plumas county that might be a bit difficult to find otherwise.

PlumasCounty.org is a great resource for all kinds of things!

Transportation

Please be aware that there is essentially no rideshare (Uber, Lyft) presence here – sometimes the apps will call drivers from Reno!

It’s important to have a plan in advance to get to and from places if imbibing.
