Pro Tips
Late spring through early fall for dry pavement, vineyard color contrast, and extended golden hour.
Bacchus Landing is walk-in friendly, but Armida Winery reservations are recommended on weekends.
Flat paved parking suitable for low vehicles.
The vineyard bends near Wohler Bridge provide some of the strongest rolling-car compositions on the route.
Avoid starting after 10:00 AM on weekends to reduce traffic on Westside Road and River Road.
