Sugarloaf Ridge State Park is a fun park to go to in the spring and winter. It can get very hot at other times. Spring brings out the wildflowers and stocks up Sonoma Creek which can almost dry up by fall.

| Directions: |
From Santa Rosa, head south on Hwy 12 about 10 miles and turn left on Adobe Canyon Rd (signed for Sugarloaf Ridge State Park).
From Rancho Cordova, take Hwy 50 to Hwy 80. Pass Vacaville and Fairfield. Then shortly after Hwy 680 heads south, veer right on Hwy 12 (about 60 miles).
It can get a little tricky as at about 6.4 miles Hwy 12 joins with Hwy 29 (turn right). After about 4 miles, turn west (left) on Hwy 12 to Sonoma. After about 5 miles, turn right on Napa Rd and continue 4 miles into Sonoma where you will turn right on Broadway (Hwy 12). Turn left at the "T" in the center of town. Follow Hwy 12 north about 11 miles to Kenwood. Continue past Kenwood about 5 miles and turn right on Adobe Canyon Rd (signed for Sugarloaf Ridge State Park).
Take this road into the park and park in the trailhead parking lot on the left, just past the park kiosk (entrance fee). |
