Exquisite Spa

Your Wine Country
Experience in Napa and
Sonoma
For visitors to the Napa Valley, its easy
to forget that this world-famous wine
growing region was famous for its hot
springs before it was famous for wine. For
nearly 150 years, the tiny town of Calistoga
at the northern end of the Valley has been
a magnet for visitors seeking relief and
relaxation in its volcanic muds warmed by
geothermal waters.
Today mud baths remain a popular option
on a broad menu of modern treatments
offered by Calistoga spas like Golden
Haven Hot Springs Spa & Resort and

Bike Tours
Alexander Valley
From Healdsburg you have two options
for touring the Alexander Valley. You can go
north on Highway 101 about eight miles to
Geyserville and turn right on state Highway
128. Or you can head north on Healdsburg
Avenue, taking a right on Alexander Valley
Road just outside of town. Alexander
Valley Road merges into Highway 128 at
a three-way stop near Jimtown. From this
intersection, if you continue east (straight)
on Highway 128, youll pass several wineries
before traveling through Knights Valley and
then winding through a series of hills to end
up in Calistoga, the northernmost reach of
the Napa Valley. If you turn left (north) onto
Highway 128, to traverse the valley towards
Geyserville, youll be driving on one of the
most picturesque roads in Sonoma County.

Bicycle Touring
Why We Love It
Imagine pedaling through the Wine
Country on a bicycling adventure that
includes wine tasting, gourmet food,
and expertly trained support staff. This
is exactly the experience that makes the
Napa Valley and Sonoma world-famous
bicycle touring destinations. A fullservice bicycle touring company can
arrange your entire trip so all you need
to do is pedal. A guide will lead you on
an itinerary carefully planned to introduce you to the best wines and sights.
A van will pick up your wine purchases
and give you a hand if you need roadside
assistance. Or, if you prefer to be your
own guide, bicycle and equipment rentals are generally available by the day and
half-day.

Lake County has been growing wine grapes
since the mid-19th Century, long before vineyards were established in Napa and Sonoma
counties. Prohibition spelled the end of commercial wine growing in the region until the
1960s, but Lake Countys wine industry is
booming again with nearly 20 wineries, 135
growers and 8,800 acres of vineyards. Within
easy reach of Napa and Sonoma, savvy wine
travelers are rediscovering the wines and
beauty of Lake Countys Wine Country. Weve
prepared a quick overnight tour to introduce
our readers to this exciting destination.
Day One: Starting from St. Helena via
Pope Valley, your first stop is Langtry Estate. The winery overlooks the beautiful Detert
Reservoir, and produces outstanding Petite
Sirah and Sauvignon Blanc. Leaving Langtry
Estate drive North towards Hwy 29 and head to
Wildhurst Vineyards in Kelseyville.
The tasting room is located in the restored
Odd Fellows Hall building. Visitors are treated
to a variety of wines including the celebrated
Sauvignon Blanc as well as local merchandise.
Next, stroll down to Studebakers Deli and
enjoy lunch where locals gather.
After lunch, get back on Hwy 29 and head to
Steele Wines. Jed Steele was the founding
winemaker at Kendall-Jackson and continues
to turn out award winning Chardonnays. When
you are finished tasting, head to Upper Lake
and the beautifully restored Tallman Hotel.
Dinner is next door at the Blue Wing Saloon where you will enjoy homestyle cooking
prepared from locally grown ingredients and
paired with local wines.
Day Two: Before returning to Napa, head
south on Hwy 20 to Ceago Vinegarden.
The beautiful winery rests on the shore of Clear
Lake. Learn about Biodynamic farming and
plans for the upcoming resort. Continue south
to Hwy 53 and merge onto Hwy 29 and return
to Napa via Calistoga. For winery hours see the
directories in this section.

REFLECT AND
REGENERATE
Spas are a key part of the
Wine Country lifestyle.
Several of the same
factors that make the
region so perfect for wine
also make it perfect for
spas. Geology, climate,
terroir (think mudbaths!).
For many visitors to the
region, spas are actually
the main attraction. And
no wonder. Some of
the top spas in America,
in the world for that
matter, are located here.
For others, spas are the
perfect complement to
the wine, the cuisine, the
natural beauty . . . the
pleasure of just being
here.
RELAX
Thats the whole point of touring the Wine
Country, isnt it? To relax? With so much to
see and do and taste, its easy to lose sight
of the point. Thats where spas come in.
For a few minutes or hours or days, they
insulate you from the frenetic pace of
fun that surrounds you and refocus your
energies on. . .relaxing.

Overview
Getting Here
BY AIR: The closest major airports are
San Francisco International (SFO), Oakland
International (OAK), and Sacramento
International (SMF). SFO and SMF are both
about 60 miles from the town of Napa at
the southern end of the Napa Valley; OAK
is somewhat closer, about 50 miles. Santa
Rosa now offers direct flights from Seattle,
Portland, Las Vegas, and Los Angeles. If you
plan ahead, you can see the Wine Country
by limousine. See our Phone Directory of
Wine Tours and Limo Services at the back of
this magazine.
BY CAR: The Wine Country is served
by two major highways. U.S. Highway 101
runs north-south, connecting San Francisco
with Sonoma and Mendocino counties.
Interstate 80 runs northeast-southwest
between San Francisco and Sacramento,
connecting to California highway 12
running into southern Napa and Sonoma
counties. Important branches off I-80 are
I-880, running along the eastern shore of
San Francisco Bay, and I-580, connecting
Oakland with San Rafael on the western
side of the Bay.
