Best drives in the Bay Area
Two routes we’d start with: mountains to the ocean, or a technical climb with a stop at Alice’s.
These guides connect individual driving roads into an outing, with a clear start, finish and optional return to make a loop. Pick the scenery and road character you’re in the mood for.
- Highway 9, Skyline & Pescadero coastal driveA great choice when you want a drive with a bit of everything: a wooded climb out of Saratoga, a stretch along Skyline, a stop at Alice’s, and a winding run through Pescadero to the ocean.Explore drive →
- Page Mill, Skyline & Alice’s driving routeA great Peninsula drive if you enjoy tighter, more involved mountain roads. Page Mill supplies the technical climb, Skyline connects you to Alice’s, and Highway 84 brings you back down toward Woodside.Explore drive →
