  • Comments Off on Must Ride: Route One, Big Sur Coast Highway

Beginning in Morro Bay (San Luis Obispo County), the route one stretch runs along the California coast line for about an estimated 126 miles up to Monterrey Bay. This stretch of asphalt heaven has been named by the Department of Transportation as part of the national list of “All American Roads.” This list only has 19 highways and Route One is the only HWY representing California. Thus, is it a must see and ride hwy for anyone looking for a scenic route and a little adventure. The coastal view is breathtaking with inland scenery featuring waterfalls, rolling hills, flowered meadows, rock outcroppings, redwood forests, coastal mountains and lush valleys. Much of the media over time has honored this classic American route in many books, articles, magazines, websites and movies. There are a number of lighthouses along the hwy with a generous amount of animal life including sharks, pelicans, bat rays, sea lions, etc. There are also a total of 7 state parks and range of historical interests along the hwy. Now, the only question is, what are you waiting for?
