Historic Placerville’s gold country now offers a multitude of colors. Trees, shrubs and native brush come alive with fall’s vivid palette. Highway 50 from Shingle Springs through Placerville to Camino is an excellent tour base, offering numerous side loops and historic sites.
“Apple Hill” orchards, farms, ranches and their restaurants welcome visitors with bakeries and fall harvest treats. Trips can vary from short jaunts to day-long tours from Placerville to the Camino areas north of Highway 50. Gold Bug Mine and the many shops on the Main Street of Placerville offer other attractions. It’s also worthwhile to just drive through the scenic side roads going one way, then back another.
Maps and other tourist information are available on web sites or contact us for any questions or assistance. We’ve served the “Mother Lode Country” for over 45 years with all types of real estate services.
I drive up to Apple Hill every Autumn to get apple pies and do a little wine tasting. Placerville is one of my favorite places in California!
