There are so many beautiful areas where you can fully immerse yourself in nature and everything around it. Although everyone soon thinks of Colorado and <a href=\"\/en\/stories\/usa\/cycling-through-breathtaking-colorado\/\">Boulder<\/a> There are many more beautiful places. For example, Los Angeles already has a number of beautiful places. <a href=\"\/en\/stories\/usa\/cycling-in-california-los-angeles\/\">hidden places<\/a>. What\u2019s more to the north, you can cycle a wonderful route, the famous Highway 1. In a nutshell: Highway 1 in California is amazing. You can actually drive all the way from Leggett in Northern California to Dana Point in Orange County, Southern California. This route is not only a favorite for car owners and holidaymakers with campers, but also for cyclists. We\u2019ll take you on a journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/thomas-ciszewski-erApmfRX7eo-unsplash-1024x767.jpg\" alt=\"Thomas Ciszewski\" data-id=\"2953\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/thomas-ciszewski-erApmfRX7eo-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2953\" class=\"wp-image-2953\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highway 1 at a glance<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Route: along the Californian coast, from Leggett in the north via San Francisco and Big Sur to Santa Monica.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Highlights: Point Reyes Lighthouse, the redwoods of Muir Woods, Monterey, Big Sur and Morro Rock.<\/li>\n\n\n<li>Direction: ride from north to south.

The story below is our original article.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highway 1 is amazing!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Highway 1 is a staple in the USA. Basically, every road trip in California runs through Highway 1. It\u2019s stunning views, winding curves, and you\u2019ll definitely have to get your feet moving a bit as it\u2019s hilly. Although most trips in San Francisco start and end in Los Angeles, it\u2019s more than worth it to also take the northern part of this route. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-2 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/eleonora-patricola-P6fwCXEf8Tc-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Eleonora patricola\" data-id=\"2955\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/eleonora-patricola-P6fwCXEf8Tc-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2955\" class=\"wp-image-2955\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/clay-kaufmann-Ks-xqzHE9Vc-unsplash-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"Clay kaufmann\" data-id=\"2956\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/clay-kaufmann-Ks-xqzHE9Vc-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2956\" class=\"wp-image-2956\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/bobby-yang-BhPS0x7WdPs-unsplash-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Bobby Yang\" data-id=\"2957\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/bobby-yang-BhPS0x7WdPs-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2957\" class=\"wp-image-2957\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Highlights<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The highlight of this route is definitely the Point Reyes Lighthouse. If you start in Leggett, you are already almost 300 kilometers into the journey. Point Reyes is probably one of the most photographed places in the USA. It is a white lighthouse with a red roof that you reach by climbing a lot of stairs. Going up and down is already a pretty workout. The view is truly spectacular. It is worth making the detour if you are traveling from north to south. You will also encounter the Point Arena lighthouse at an earlier point. It is definitely a photo opportunity. The Tomales Ecological Reserve is also a nice stop. The nature is beautiful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-3 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/eleonora-patricola-P6fwCXEf8Tc-unsplash-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Eleonora patricola\" data-id=\"2959\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/eleonora-patricola-P6fwCXEf8Tc-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2959\" class=\"wp-image-2959\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/bruno-wolff-JB-gNGrdXss-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Bruno Wolff\" data-id=\"2960\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/bruno-wolff-JB-gNGrdXss-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2960\" class=\"wp-image-2960\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Through the trees<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The further you get to San Francisco (about 400 kilometers on the route), the more you see the trees. Here is \u2018Redwood Country\u2019. One of the most beautiful places is the Muir Woods State Forest, where you drive along the road down. You also drive past Mount Tamalpais State Park. Here you can also take a short detour on the Panoramic highway. Just for the photos alone you would do it, but the view and the surroundings are absolutely fantastic. The northern part of Highway 1 doesn\u2019t often go past the sea. It is in that respect a different, but no less beautiful part of the route. Before crossing the bridge: make a stop in Sausolito. A nice artists\u2019 village and a perfect stop for lunch or a coffee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-4 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/utsav-shah-v0BRVtTIG2Y-unsplash-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Utsav Shah\" data-id=\"2961\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/utsav-shah-v0BRVtTIG2Y-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2961\" class=\"wp-image-2961\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/ethan-dow-n4jLGbNfFrE-unsplash-684x1024.jpg\" alt=\"California dreaming: Highway 1\" data-id=\"2962\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/ethan-dow-n4jLGbNfFrE-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2962\" class=\"wp-image-2962\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/david-hertle-FfoDMbh78gU-unsplash-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"David Hertle\" data-id=\"2964\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/david-hertle-FfoDMbh78gU-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2964\" class=\"wp-image-2964\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-5 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/earl-wilcox-HldOZRT6wsY-unsplash-1-1024x526.jpg\" alt=\"Earl Wilcox\" data-id=\"2971\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/earl-wilcox-HldOZRT6wsY-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2971\" class=\"wp-image-2971\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Are we going to San Francisco<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The ride to San Francisco and especially the route over the Golden Gate Bridge is beautiful, but it can definitely be chilly too. There is a Pacific Stream that often brings fog and with it cold to this part of the route. For the fans of Alcatraz: the reason that prisoners in Alcatraz actually did not escape is the cold of the water and the distance to the shore. So dress warmly if you are cycling here. Immediately after the bridge you follow highway 1 along the coast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/noah-phung-aGGwfoB3CoA-unsplash-1024x718.jpg\" alt=\"View of San Fran\" data-id=\"2970\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/noah-phung-aGGwfoB3CoA-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2970\" class=\"wp-image-2970\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">View of San Fran<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Surfer's paradise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now you\u2019re going along the first stretch of Highway 1 towards Los Angeles. This is often overlooked on road trips, because it\u2019s not quite as interesting as the stretch from Monterey Bay. Still, it\u2019s worth doing on a bike. You start here on the longest stretch that leads along the coast towards Santa Cruz and then continue towards the highlight: Big Sur. But first the stretch to Santa Cruz: here you pass through Half Moon Bay. Not bad for lunch, they would say. From here to Santa Cruz you really get into surfer\u2019s paradise. The University of Santa Cruz is sometimes also known as the University of Surfer Cruz. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-7 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/cristina-anne-costello-YZBqxZ08Wrg-unsplash-1024x605.jpg\" alt=\"Cristina Anne Costello\" data-id=\"2972\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/cristina-anne-costello-YZBqxZ08Wrg-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2972\" class=\"wp-image-2972\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Monterey and beyond<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you\u2019ve turned the bend at Santa Cruz, you\u2019ll reach Monterey. Not to be confused with Monterrey in Mexico. It\u2019s much quieter here. The town has a nice aquarium and the boardwalk there is a great place for a lunch stop with a view. It\u2019s also a good idea to stop here for a quick recharge before continuing on. The most famous and most well-documented stretch is \u2018Big Sur\u2019. If you\u2019re in Monterey, the Monterey Canning Company (the red building) will definitely stand out. This building is famous from the books of John Steinbeck. If you\u2019re a fan of Steinbeck, a stop in Salinas (just before Monterey) at the Steinbeck Museum is a must. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-8 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/cameron-venti-q-GrpiLagKo-unsplash-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"Cameron Venti\" data-id=\"2974\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/cameron-venti-q-GrpiLagKo-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2974\" class=\"wp-image-2974\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Big Sur<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We could talk for hours about Big Sur. From Bixby Creek bridge to Ragged Point and beyond to San Simeon\/Hearst Castle. It is truly stunningly beautiful. Because the road runs so close to the ocean, you have magnificent views at almost every point along the way. By the way, don\u2019t forget to stop along the way because at several points you can also see the seals and seals along the route. Nice! A stop at Hearst Castle is also recommended, although you will have to book in advance. William Hearst, a newspaper magnate and the namesake of Hearst Magazines (now owner of Bicycling), had a \u2018modest residence\u2019 there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-3 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-9 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/cristofer-maximilian-jZXNp29QBC4-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Christofer Maximilian\" data-id=\"2975\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2975\" class=\"wp-image-2975\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/guillaume-merle-gMk6UejgyAE-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"Guillaume Merle\" data-id=\"2976\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2976\" class=\"wp-image-2976\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/118-img_5-big-sur.jpeg\" alt=\"California dreaming: Highway 1, photo 2\" data-id=\"2979\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/118-img_5-big-sur.jpeg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2979\" class=\"wp-image-2979\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/118-img_5-big-sur.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/118-img_5-big-sur-300x200.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/118-img_5-big-sur-768x512.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-10 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/ethan-dow-zpKVhgi16g0-unsplash-640x1024.jpg\" alt=\"California dreaming: Highway 1, photo 3\" data-id=\"2977\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/ethan-dow-zpKVhgi16g0-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2977\" class=\"wp-image-2977\"\/><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/iris-papillon-FuxRM_jOFHY-unsplash-1-683x1024.jpg\" alt=\"Iris papillon FuxRM jOFHY\" data-id=\"2978\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/iris-papillon-FuxRM_jOFHY-unsplash-1-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2978\" class=\"wp-image-2978\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Morro Rock<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once you leave Big Sur, you reach Morro Bay and then Morro Rock. This strange phenomenon attracts quite a few visitors every year. You can cycle there and even walk and drive quite a way, but ultimately it\u2019s mostly beautiful to look at from a distance. You can do this well from the bay, where you have several good eateries, coffee shops and places to stay. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-11 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/earthly-beauties-dwMNERPcsHY-unsplash-1024x767.jpg\" alt=\"Earthly beauties\" data-id=\"2981\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/earthly-beauties-dwMNERPcsHY-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2981\" class=\"wp-image-2981\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Holy ground<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The road between San Francisco and Los Angeles (and further on towards San Diego) sometimes also coincides with Highway 101, also known as El Camino Real. This is a former pilgrimage route, so you will encounter many names with \u2018San\u2019 in them: San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Santa Barbara, San Luis Obispo, Santa Maria. There you will often also find an old mission post. Of course, great efforts have been made to convert the inhabitants of this area. That has not been entirely successful. But the remaining mission posts are already a route in their own right. Especially those of San Luis Obispo (a fun student city, abbreviated as SLO) and Santa Barbara are well worth visiting. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-2 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-12 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/ken-ohyama-mHDdwWwoVvw-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"SLO county\" data-id=\"2982\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2982\" class=\"wp-image-2982\"\/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">SLO county<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"495\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/homepage_mission-1024x495.png\" alt=\"Mission San Luis Obispo\" data-id=\"2983\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/homepage_mission.png\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2983\" class=\"wp-image-2983\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/homepage_mission-1024x495.png 1024w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/homepage_mission-300x145.png 300w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/homepage_mission-768x372.png 768w, https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/homepage_mission.png 1240w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-item__caption\">Mission San Luis Obispo<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Wine Country<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Beyond San Luis Obispo you arrive in the wine region of Southern California.

You\u2019re now really close to Los Angeles. Around Lompoc the nature is beautiful, but you also have to deal with Vandenberg AFB. It\u2019s located on the coast, so you only see the inland there. Further on, near Santa Barbara it gets nice again, but you also drive a bit over the 101. The traffic is a bit of a challenge there. Santa Barbara is definitely worth a stop, even just because of the mission post, the series, and the fact that you can do celebrity spotting there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Go to Malibu<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In a previous article we already wrote about the stretch around Malibu. The stretch between Santa Barbara and Ventura is a bit less beautiful, but once you get off the 101 near Oxnard, it\u2019s pure enjoyment. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery columns-1 is-cropped wp-block-gallery-14 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\"><ul class=\"blocks-gallery-grid\"><li class=\"blocks-gallery-item\"><figure><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/genevieve-perron-migneron-7kLs7lJHWcM-unsplash-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"Genevieve Perron Migneron\" data-id=\"2992\" data-full-url=\"\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/genevieve-perron-migneron-7kLs7lJHWcM-unsplash-scaled.jpg\" data-link=\"https:\/\/cyclingdestination.cc\/?attachment_id=2992\" class=\"wp-image-2992\"\/><\/figure><\/li><\/ul><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">To Santa Monica<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the end, you literally ride the last stretch over the beach, via the beach bike path. In Santa Monica and further on in Venice Beach, you can really relax and enjoy everything that happens. Venice Beach is a nice place where eccentric people gather. Santa Monica is more for families and a bit more upscale.

Trust us on this. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Stay and more<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you drive the entire route, you can choose from a variety of accommodations. Not only hotels, but there are also plenty of (well-equipped) campsites along the coast. Often with all the amenities, but sometimes more basic ones. In all the villages, there is a good inn where you can stay and you are never more than 25-30 kilometers away from a good place to sleep. The same goes for food and drink. If you drive the entire route (almost 1200 kilometers), you will have to be on the move for a while. But it\u2019s also worth it. You will also pick up 12,000 meters of elevation gain. Pretty cool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.komoot.nl\/tour\/571395925?share_token=aPMPZfsKM1Xr4NpeaM3hiu14ndTzRzJYYgbWUC9HRwIphAI6Q9&#038;ref=wtd\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"California dreaming: Highway 1, photo 4\" src=\"https:\/\/www.komoot.nl\/tour\/571395925\/embed?share_token=aPMPZfsKM1Xr4NpeaM3hiu14ndTzRzJYYgbWUC9HRwIphAI6Q9&#038;image=1&#038;hm=true&#038;profile=1&#038;width=640&#038;height=480\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\"\/><\/a>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Questions about Highway 1<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How long does the route take?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From San Francisco to Los Angeles, allow a week to ten days.
