AIR ROUTES:

Kirkwood is fairly close to these major airports:
Reno-Tahoe International (RNO) is the closest
Sacramento International (SMF) is second closest

San Francisco International (SFO) – is roughly a 3 hour drive from Kirkwood, but there are obvious advantages to stopping in SF before and after you visit the mountain. However, securing rides from SF can sometimes be more trouble than it’s worth. So, unless you plan on renting a car once you land, it might make more sense to fly into the Renoe-Tahoe airport.
