Riding Highway 1: Cyclists Welcome!
With Highway 1 still closed north of Ragged Point due to mudslides, the ultimate coastal cycling trip is even more special: the Nacimiento-Fergusson Road detour takes you up into the hills above the coast, offering exciting, curvy roads and stunning views. In a car, it’s a cool drive—but on a bike, it’s everything great about Highway 1 plus the fun of meandering mountain paths.
The LA Times agrees, writing, “It’ll quicken your pulse, drop your jaw and demand your full attention.” Coming from the north or south, take this detour through Paso Robles and enjoy a new side of the Central Coast.
