Elk Grove and beyond: California by car

Elk Grove is located near some of California’s most popular regions, making it hard to choose where to go. We’ve picked three destinations you can visit in your rental car on a day trip.

Sacramento

California’s little-seen capital is often unfairly overlooked. Take the chance to explore the city while you’re in neighboring Elk Grove. Don’t miss the Old Sacramento Historic District, where 19th-century California lives on in traditional museums, and a miniature railroad that runs along the water’s edge. Once you’ve explored that, head to the elegant Capitol building, where you’ll find a fascinating museum.

Journey time: Around 25 minutes

Distance: Approximately 15 miles

Napa

California is the most prolific wine-producing state in the US, and the jewel in its crown is Napa Valley. It’s the kind of place where it’s best just to drop by any one of its numerous wineries to see and taste what they’re making. Best of all, the vineyards come with views of the surrounding Mayacamas and Vaca Mountains, so you can enjoy the scenery while you sip.

Journey time: Around 1 hour 20 minutes

Distance: Approximately 75 miles

South Lake Tahoe

South Lake Tahoe is the gateway town to the rest of the lake, which is a year-round destination for outdoors enthusiasts. The glistening, turquoise lake is an ideal spot for swimming, sunbathing and watersports in summer, particularly at spots such as Emerald Bay. In winter, it’s one of the best skiing destinations in California and Nevada, where the slopes come with views of the lake.

Journey time: Around 2 hours 10 minutes

Distance: Approximately 120 miles
