Pack your bags and hit the road! Get ready for an unforgettable adventure: this coastal route, a combination of US Highway 101 and State Route 1, commonly called Highway 1, gets you up close and personal with nearly every twist and turn of the Pacific shore. These historic highways will show you sunny SoCal beaches, the cliffs of Big Sur, the hills of San Francisco, towering redwoods, rugged Northwest sea stacks—and mile upon mile of breathtaking ocean views. San Francisco Candy-hued Victorian row houses dominate many of the city’s steep hillsides, creating colorful, scenic views in every direction. Marin County The houseboat community at Sausalito’s Waldo Point Harbor inspired Otis Redding to pen his classic hit “(Sittin’ on) the Dock of the Bay.” Though it may not get the attention that the coastal routes do, the inland route along historic Highway 99 takes you to the West Coast’s most diverse destinations, including all the wildly varied climate regions—plus all three state capitals. You’ll visit searing deserts and alpine peaks, barren plains and inland seas, the largest cities and the smallest towns, from ancient history to the wave of the future. Forest Adventures The meadows in redwood country are grazing haunts for Roosevelt elk, but don’t approach them! Rutting bulls and mother cows can be dangerously aggressive. Keep Portland Weird The White Stag sign has changed its slogan many times over the years, beginning as a sporting-goods billboard and transforming into a city-owned landmark. Explore Washington In contrast to the rain forests of the western Olympic Peninsula, the area northeast of the mountains is a “blue hole” of sunny skies and calm seas. This whole different ecosystem and farming region can be toured with a series of short detours off of Highway 101. One 5-mile hike takes you to a lighthouse available for rentals for honorary lightkeepers.
