There's Nothing More Enchanting Than A Winter Getaway To This NorCal Small Town
The Golden State is one of the most geographically diverse states in the U.S. — the “California Double” (where you surf and snowboard on the same calendar day) is a real possibility here! With a coastline of incredible beaches, diverse desert regions, mountain ranges, and stunning forests, it’s no wonder California is one of the most visited places in the country. Exploring California’s beauty during the winter can be a totally magical experience, whether you’ve never been here or you’ve lived in California all your life! For snowy, small-town charm, Twain-Harte is a great getaway destination during winter in Northern California.
With its close proximity to some larger destinations in the Sierra Nevadas, visitors are only a short drive away from resort activities- they can experience this while also enjoying a quiet, small-town feel in NorCal. For more information, check out the Visit Tuolumne County website.

Covered in snow, NorCal is quite a winter wonderland. And there are so many incredible things you can do during the coldest months of the year that you can’t do in others. Take a look at some of the best things to do in Northern California during the winter:
