Why You Should Travel California in an RV
California is such a big state that it’s hard to do it all in one trip. Each region is worth a trip all on its own. Throughout the state, you’ll find towering redwood coastline, snow-capped Sierra peaks, rolling wine country, dramatic central coast cliffs, and stark desert wilderness. Nowhere else can you hike among 2,000-year-old redwoods in the morning and sip Zinfandel at a family-owned vineyard by sundown.
This guide breaks California into five manageable regions: what makes each one worth the drive, the national parks and trails that anchor it, and the unique Harvest Hosts stays that turn an overnight stop into the best part of the trip.
