Request NewsletterDiscover Tuolumne County, the gateway to California's north entrance of Yosemite National Park and a destination that offers three distinct vacations rolled into one unforgettable trip. Nestled between the San Francisco Bay Area and the High Sierra, this is where Gold Rush history, alpine wilderness, and small-town charm meet along Highways 49, 108 and 120.
Wander the boardwalks of authentic Gold Rush towns such as Sonora, Jamestown and Columbia, where stagecoach rides, historic saloons and costumed interpreters bring the 1850s back to life. Head east along Highway 120 and you'll reach the quieter, less-crowded side of Yosemite National Park, with giant sequoias, waterfalls and legendary granite domes. Further along Highway 108, the High Sierra reveals dramatic mountain passes, alpine lakes and the kind of fresh air and wide-open scenery that outdoor lovers dream about.
Whatever the season, there's always something new to try. Sign up to the Visit Tuolumne County Newsletter for ideas on hiking and biking trails, fishing and watersports on Don Pedro Lake, gold panning, horseback riding, wine and cider tasting, and year-round live entertainment at venues such as Sierra Repertory Theatre and Chicken Ranch Casino Resort. Families will find mini golf, museums, farms and easy access to historic railroads, while couples can plan a mountain wedding against a backdrop of granite peaks and forest.
Just two and a half hours by road from the Bay Area and two from Sacramento, Tuolumne County makes an ideal short break or longer escape for couples, families and groups alike. Sign up to the free Visit Tuolumne County Newsletter today for the latest events and trip ideas.
The Tuolumne County Vacation Planner is a separate free download from the Visit Tuolumne County website, so you can start planning a trip that blends mountain adventure, Gold Country heritage and small-town Californian hospitality.
