The area is dotted with historic wineries such as Sebastiani and GunBun, which offer picturesque picnic areas and vineyard views. If you&#8217;re looking for an action-packed activity, take a helicopter ride over the valley to get a bird&#8217;s eye view of the area&#8217;s wineries. You can also experience a hot air balloon ride, which is available for a small fee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are many outdoor activities in Sonoma Valley California, including zip-lining. Located in the heart of the Redwoods, Sonoma Canopy Tours takes participants 250 feet above the forest floor for a breathtaking bird&#8217;s eye view of the area. There are three different zip-line tours, as well as sky bridges and rappelling. There&#8217;s also plenty to keep kids occupied in the region&#8217;s many wineries and vineyards.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to wine tasting and vineyard views, Sonoma Valley is also a great place to experience California&#8217;s famous Coastal Redwoods. These trees fill numerous parks in the area. The tallest living thing on Earth, they live between 500 and 700 years. You&#8217;ll find a variety of different wineries and breweries in the region, and they&#8217;re all well worth a visit. And don&#8217;t miss the chance to try the wine in one of the many tasting rooms.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another beautiful area to visit is Bodega Bay, the protected bay on the Sonoma Coast. The Bodega Head peninsula straddles Bodega Bay and is the ideal place to observe whales. The trail to Maula Falls crosses private property, so be sure to bring a guide! In addition to tasting the local wines, you can also enjoy hiking trails along the cliffs to the south. Whether you&#8217;re looking for a scenic picnic spot or a hike, the Sonoma Valley has something for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Santa Rosa is the largest city in Sonoma County and is in the center of wine country. Santa Rosa is home to more than 400 wineries. Many of them feature tasting rooms where you can sample the wine and eat snacks while sipping on them. While Santa Rosa may not be a fun destination in itself, it&#8217;s an excellent perch for exploring the entire Sonoma Valley wine region. Nearby towns such as Petaluma and Healdsburg are also worth checking out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For dinner, you can try some of the best restaurants in Sonoma Valley. The locals love the Italian-style food at Salt &amp; Stone, which is two minutes away from the house. If you&#8217;re looking for a casual yet elegant place to eat in the Sonoma area, you can try Fig Cafe. The casual atmosphere and free corkage make this a popular spot for locals. Moreover, the restaurant accepts walk-ins, making it easy for guests to stop by for a meal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you love to explore nature and wineries, you are sure to enjoy a visit to Sonoma Valley California.
