Alternative Scenic Routes

The scenic routes along Hwy 1 from San Francisco are very beautiful however, they require a good deal of extra time and energy as the winding road is mostly two lanes only. These routes could easily double your travel time. We recommend the above route when driving same day trips to and from Mendocino and the Bay Area
