Although Sonoma is known for its wine, one of the things that makes this region incredibly special is its geography. Sonoma County is home to beaches, forests, ocean cliffs, mountains, and riverbeds — the perfect place for your team to explore nature. The best part is that Sonoma has a Mediterranean climate with over 250 days of sunshine yearly.
The region is also home to 60,000 acres of vineyards and more than 400 wineries, with many organic, artisanal, and eco-friendly options. This local focus extends to the food scene, with farm-to-table restaurants, farmers' markets, and unique team-building activities like riding horseback to Jack London's writing cottage or taking a hot air balloon ride over the vineyards.
Every team is different. These starting points can be tailored to your group size, goals, and budget.
