About Plumas, Sierra and Nevada Counties
Plumas, Sierra, and Nevada counties offer extensive year-round outdoor recreation that draws residents and visitors seeking uncrowded natural landscapes, historic mountain towns, and diverse activities-from hiking, fishing, hunting, camping, OHV riding, and skiing to cycling, birding, and water-based recreation on lakes and rivers. These counties are known for their unique combination of high-elevation forests, alpine lakes, volcanic geology, and remote scenic valleys that create a distinct Sierra Mountain experience. The Plumas and Sierra region is known as the "Lost Sierra", due the remoteness compared to more congested tourist areas with uncrowded recreation opportunities. The region hosts recreation events including Tour de Manure bike ride, the Downieville Classic mountain bike race, fishing derbies, endurance trail runs, and more. Recreation is a major economic driver across the region, supporting local businesses, lodging, restaurants, retail, and seasonal jobs; generating significant visitor spending; and supporting rural economies that rely heavily on tourism, outdoor access, and community-hosted events.
