Not many cities of just over 5,000 people can boast of having Yosemite National Park, the best preserved 1849 gold rush era town (Columbia State Historic Park) and a top railway museum (Railtown State Historic Park) in the "neighborhood". Add to that, a vibrant arts scene (two award winning repertory theater companies), numerous art galleries and a year-around schedule of entertainment and events that would rival many major American cities and you have it all in Sonora, CA.

In addition to four-season recreation of every kind from the traditional...golf, skiing, hiking, boating, etc to the more adventurous...white water rafting, zip lining, pack trips in the mountains, etc.; it's all here! You can visit a cave in the morning, go skiing in the afternoon and on your way back do some wine tasting and enjoy an elegant meal.

Sonora is the heart of Yosemite Gold Country: a region rich in many ways!
