Highlights from the road in California... Trip 12: Northern Redwood Coast. Ditch the cell phone and hug a tree, dude. California’s towering giants grow along much of the coast, from Big Sur north to the Oregon border. It’s possible to cruise past the trees – or even drive right through them at old-fashioned tourist traps – but nothing compares to the awe you’ll feel while walking underneath these ancient ones. Trip 21: Yosemite, Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks. In what conservationist John Muir called a temple, everything looks bigger, whether you’re getting splashed by thunderous waterfalls, staring up at granite domes or walking in giant sequoia groves. For sublime views, perch at Glacier Point under a full moon or along high-elevation Tioga Rd. Trip 32: Palm Springs & Joshua Tree Oases Whimsical-looking Joshua trees defi ne this park, where the Colorado and Mojave Deserts converge. This is one of California’s top places to go rock climbing, but even kids can scramble around the larger-than-life boulders. Hikers seek out fan-palm oases fed by springs and streams. Hit the Road! California’s road trips will take you from the breezy, wildlife-rich Pacific Coast, to the towering redwoods of Big Sur and the north, to off -the-beaten-track deserts and Gold Rush towns, to big-name national parks such as Yosemite and Death Valley, and through the vine-strewn valleys of celebrated wine countries, starting with Sonoma and Napa. From backcountry lanes to beachside highways, we’ve got something for you. And if you’ve only got time for one trip, make it one of our nine Classic Trips, which take you to the very best of California. See Below For More California Titles From Lonely Planet.
