Third Day California on the road. Driving Highway 101 north and leaving Highway 128 in Cloverdale you reach the wine area of the county Mendochina. Area rich in restaurants and wine bars where you can taste the wine and eat some snacks that accompany it.
In the coastal village of Mendocino most buildings are listed in the National Register of Historic Places. The most delicious can visit the chocolate factory Mendocino Chocolate Company where to buy desserts and pralines. On the other hand, you can see and visit the headlights of this coastal area, such as Point Cabrillo Light Station where you can also stay overnight.
Another visit is the botanical gardens of Mendocino Coast Botanical Gardens. While from the Van Damme Pygmy Forest Trail the most experienced can climb while during the winter months whales can be seen. Spend the night in one of the romantic B&Bs.
Fourth Day. Cross Highway 1, through Fort Bragg and continue until the 101 north. Soon you will see the majestic Viale dei Giganti, world-famous, which you drive through extensive sequoia woods.
There are many original attractions in the area, including a visit to the gigantic sequoia of Rockefeller Forest which with its 370 meters high, are so great that some can be crossed by car.
If you have one more day, travel north to Redwood National and State Parks for hiking and overnight stay. After a stop for lunch, head south towards the old town of Ukiah, where you can stay in a charming B & B and explore the cellars of the area.
Alightly extending the route, before taking the 20th highway, admire the picturesque Clear Lake, the largest natural freshwater lake in California which is also an ideal starting point for visiting Lake County wineries, known for its delicious production of Sauvignon Blanc and Cabernet Sauvignon Quinto Day wines.
Spend the morning on a walk or hike to Ukiah or Clear Lake before heading south to San Francisco. A stop is recommended in the region of Los Carneros located between the counties of Napa and Sonoma, then in the heart of the famous wine area.
Los Carneros means sheep in Spanish; the area as well as for the wine that is produced is rightly famous for the sheep that punctuate its hills.The sheep are not there by chance, but grazing on those hills, eat the grass of the land destined for the sustainable wine production that is implemented in California.
