California Tourism - Sacramento Attractions, Activities
and Day Trips
Wine country --- the delicious flavors and scenic vistas of
Napa and Sonoma Valley are less than 60 miles from Sacramento.
Hundreds of wineries dot the countryside. If possible take this
trip on a weekday when the wineries are less crowded. From Sacramento
take I-80 West to the CA-12 exit toward Napa/Sonoma. Merge onto
Jamison Canyon Road, stay straight and pick up the Napa Vallejo
Hwy. If you have a hankering for height, numerous hot air balloon
companies offer airborne tours of the region. During the spring
the wildflowers are delightful. No matter when you visit, even
during the summer when the temperature soars, be certain to
stuff your jacket in the car, evening temperatures are breezy
and cool year round. As an alternative to driving you can ride
the Napa Valley Wine Train through the area. Contact them at
707-253-2111 for information.
If you are a fan of history or traveling with kids youll want
to check out the historic mining town of Angels Camp. Its less
than forty miles from Sacramento and has a great museum to help
you decipher the gold rush days. Call 209-736-2963 for information.
