Ladies, Unite!

Ditch the dude and get your swirl on! Girlfriends Getaway season is in full swing in Sonoma Valley! You and your friends get to enjoy special events and savings on everything from lodging to luxurious spa treatments, and of course, wine! Sonoma Valley is California's oldest wine country, including the very first winery established in the state. It's also home to a historic plaza—a sprawling center park surrounded by cool shops, a variety of restaurants, and over a dozen walkable tasting rooms. The plaza is also the starting point for country road bike routes to world-class wineries. Rent your wheels in town and pedal to multiple vineyards with a picnic lunch. Easygoing hiking trails are all around, including the Overlook Trail, a locals' favorite that tops out at a sublime sunset viewing spot. The short hike lets you return in time for dinner and drinks on the plaza. So come hike, bike, shop, sip, and swirl in Sonoma Valley this spring. You go, girlfriends!
