What are things to do in sonoma county?

Once your Iron Horse visit is planned, incredible restaurants, nature and natural beauty beckon. Sonoma County is a playground for everyone. All you need is a long weekend to take full advantage of everything our home has to offer.

  • Incredible food. Michelin restaurants in Healdsburg and plenty of hidden gems that deserve accolades. Read Joy's blog about her favorite food in the Russian River area.
  • Redwood walks and hikes. A short drive from the estate, the vines give way to some of the oldest trees on earth. Wander among thousand-year-old trees at Armstrong Woods (pro tip: skip the crowds at Muir Woods), where it's quiet enough to hear yourself think.
  • Take a drive to see the seals. Extend your visit west on River Road and you'll see cliffs and adorable wildlife. Jenner sits where the Russian River meets the Pacific, and seals make frequent appearances. It's the kind of drive that makes the whole trip feel bigger than a single afternoon of tasting.
  • Explore the Russian River. Paddle it, float it, or just sit at its edge. If you've spent the year under desert sun or city sky, this is the counterpoint: cool, green, unhurried. Bubbles pair as well with shade as they do with sun.
