Napa Uncorked.
Your Itinerary:
Day 1-2: Sip and cycle your way through Napa Valley, past famed wineries along the Silverado Trail. Visit galleries, markets, and tasting rooms in the quaint California towns of Yountville and Calistoga. Post-ride, settle into our valley oasis, an Auberge property, and then treat yourself to a spa treatment.
Day 3: Vineyards give way to eucalyptus groves, world-famous creameries, and wide-open cattle country as you bike toward the ocean. Cycle over windswept headlands to Bodega Bay, nestled along the dramatic Pacific coast. Relax and recharge while you take in expansive ocean views from our lodge’s idyllic hot tub.
Day 4-6: Bike past rugged beaches before heading inland along the Russian River. Wander through charming Healdsburg—its tasting rooms and restaurants might tempt you to stay awhile. Sampling opportunities abound in Alexander and Dry Creek Valleys, where dozens of wineries line our route. Enjoy a classic wine country bike tour past manicured vineyards. A special farewell dinner adds a flourish to an unforgettable week.
Welcome Back to Balance.
