Big Sur, California Coast & Wine Country

6 Days • 400 Miles • 27,300' Elevation • $2,495

Views abound on this cycling vacation of the southern California coast! We love the Big Sur Scenic Byway so much we bike it twice, from the south and then from the north! After basking in the rays of Big Sur sunshine we'll head down the coast through San Luis Obispo and Pismo Beach. Eventually we will wind our way into the Solvang Wine Country, where we'll loop the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley and it's wineries.

Along the way we'll cycle past lighthouses, sea lions, Hearst Castle, and the best views on the California coast. Prepare to ride the famous beaches of Big Sur, Moonstone Bay, and Pismo. If you've never seen this section of the Pacific coastline, then treat yourself to a Bicycle Tour you will not forget!
