Editor note: This is one of the most enjoyable and most scenic car drives to take.� One of the most romantic drives for couples to take together.� Also this is very enjoyable and exciting for families and friends to take.� Please call to double check timeframes. http://www.losriosrancho.com/

We've seen plenty of Apple Farms & Ranches, but we like Los Rios the best.� As you take the drive up you will notice a bunch of farms and ranches to take.� As you take this drive, you will be impressed with beauty of this drive up. There are a lot of Kodak moments.� So take your time up and spend time stopping at each farm.

Tip: leave early in the morning and arrive when the ranches and shops open. We try to end up at Los Rios by 11:30 am for lunch just to avoid the crowds.� It does get crowded on the weekends.� Some of the attractions along the drive up are: fruit stands, apple picking, fresh apple juice, apple tasting, nature walks, beautiful mountain views, hay rides, petting areas, live music, lot of little shops, breakfast places, walking trails, etc.� Take your camera, you can go with kids, friends or as a couple.� It is very memorable.� Be careful going late in November or December, the season could end before that.
