This hike is a must do for anyone who enjoys the outdoors. 3.1 mile hike, just a few blocks from the town square. The trail is well maintained and is gradually traverses up the hill. Plenty of shade and open areas along the trail. Views of the Sonoma Valley from the top are gorgeous. You will pass people going up and down but it is not crowded. No dogs or bikes allowed. Keep an eye out for the occassional hawk at the top of the trail.

The Adventure Buddies went for a beautiful hike at Jenner Headlands to see the incredible Sonoma County coastline. Great place to get good photos, fresh air, exercise or have a picnic and relax. Whether it’s sunrise or sunset so pretty!

Enjoy the beauty of wine country on horseback! Experience beautiful vineyards and amazing mountain views of Sonoma and Napa. Our guides are knowledgeable and friendly and will provide you an unforgettable and safe experience!
If you're looking for an experience in wine country that extends beyond yet another tasting room then make your way to Sonoma Valley Trail Rides. Owner Michelle and her team of friendly wranglers will match you with one of their gentle and healthy horses then take you out among the vines. Follow beautiful paths over hills, around ponds, and to the top of stunning vistas. The hour-long ride is the perfect way to take in the beauty of Sonoma wine country, leaving plenty of time for a picnic lunch or a stroll through downtown Sonoma. This is not your typical stable ride. You'll be given the freedom to trot up hills and wander along the trails on horseback side by side with your fellow riders. You'll also learn about the vineyards, grape growing and more from your super knowledgable and friendly guides along the way. So get ready for a truly spectacular experience in Wine Country! Don't worry about packing your cowboy boots, Michelle has plenty on hand for you to use. Helmets are provided, as well as sunblock, water and all the advice you need to be comfortable on your horse. I was paired with a beauty named Coal. The website (sonomavalleytrailrides.com/our-horses) says Coal will melt anyone's heart. No truer words have been written. I highly recommend you check out the site for more info on the ride you want (Michelle offer's two different experiences), get a closer look at the beautiful horses, and find info on everything you need to know to make this the most memorable time you spend in wine country!

Jack London State Historic Park, comprised of 1400 acres, is the legacy of Jack London, one of America's most famous authors. The park offers historic buildings dating to the late 1870's, great scenic beauty and more than 20 miles of trails open to hikers, bikers and horseback riders. The park is open year-round, 7 days, 9 a.m. - 5 p.m. There is no camping. Day Use fee is $10/car. Historic buildings include the House of Happy Walls, the Wolf House Ruin, barns, the Cottage where Jack London lived and died and the famous "Pig Palace".
What a GEM! Jack London is California’s first native born novelist and this State Park is a chance to walk in his footsteps and appreciate his creativity and uniqueness. From the self-guided walking tours of Wolf House, the Beauty Ranch, and his cottage to the more extensive hikes up to London and Fern Lakes, is truly a walk back into the early 1900s. Unfortunately due to Covid the museum house was closed, and a return trip when it’s open is a must. I never tire of this State Park and the history it contains. Always include a picnic lunch to enjoy on property.

A state park and beach recommended for fishing, walking and picnicking.
The stretch from Bodega Bay to Jenner is spectacular, as the road hugs the coastline, highlighted by sea stacks, coves, and endless vistas. Plenty of pull outs for beach stops, with many outfitted with picnic tables to relax and watch the ocean. Take your pick of the beaches, and spend the day in one of the most beautiful places on earth. And, if you are lucky, you could catch a whale or two in season. Just a great place.

A rugged and recommended whale-watching promontory along the California coast.
It’s an easy hike along the top of cliffs with beautiful views of Bodega Bay, the coastline and the tip of Point Reyes Seashore. You need to stop and enjoy the views, there are seals(?) on rocks offshore and swimming, deer grazing and lots of birds. We visited on a windy day and the wind watery strong. Not a hike to rush through, you need to linger.
