Day 4 - Lake Solano to Calistoga

Wednesday's route continues west via Hwy 128 and crosses the tour's half way point! It first ascends into the river canyon, climbs past Monticello Dam and then over "Cardiac Hill" in Napa County. You will head north through vineyards and forest into Pope Valley and a new stop at Family Farm on Ink Grade Rd. This will give you a chance to catch your breath during the challenging four mile climb up Ink Grade to the quiet burg of Angwin. Your reward is the amazing descent down into the Napa Valley; it's one of the best! While camping is provided at the Napa Countty Fairgrounds, this might also be a good night for a mid tour hotel room splurge! Dinner tonight is on your own at one of the many great restaurants in downtown Calistoga.
