Editor Michelle Drown came up and experienced the package, which includes a zipline canopy tour for two, wine tasting at Ancient Peaks Winery, gourmet boxed lunches and a night at the Madonna Inn.

Her conclusion?  “We found the ‘Zip, Sip & Stay’ package had been the perfect escape — it only took a quick drive up the coast to achieve the rest and renewal that typically requires a plane ride.”

During this period, the northbound off-ramp will be closed. This means that you will have to travel past the closed off-ramp and on up to Santa Barbara Road in Atascadero, then cross the highway and come back down to Santa Margarita (the southbound off-ramp will remain open).

Please allow at least an extra 15 minutes for this detour. We are sorry for any inconvenience, but it is out of our control.

The tours depart at 7:30 p.m., and arrive at the top of the Renegade departure around 8 p.m.. Here, you will enjoy sweeping 360-degree views of valleys, vineyards and mountains, all bathed in the magnificent glow of sunset. From there, you will soar along all four of our ziplines spanning a combined 3,000 feet. The thrills are sure to be amplified by the diminishing light.

Our zipline canopy tours are one of six experiences featured in a story called Peak Weekends, featuring “adventures that are at their best right now…”

The magazine notes: “The tours zoom you down four ziplines with views of vineyards  and the Santa Lucia Mountains. The first ride is a bit of a heart stopper, but after zipping 1,300 feet across a lush valley, you’ll appreciate that first sip of wine even more.”

Thanks to Sunset for including us as one of the west’s best adventures!

Here’s what contributor Melanie Warner wrote about our experience:

Need a little adventure in your life? How about a day of wine tasting at a California vineyard with panoramic views while you glide along a zip line? This secret gem is located at the historic Santa Margarita Ranch, a true landmark in Northern California…You’ll enjoy four distinct zip lines spanning more than 3,000 total feet, starting with an epic 1,300-foot valley crossing – where screams of glee echo off the valley floor.

Perfectly put, thanks Melanie and Drive The Nation!

Earlier this year, Trekaroo founder LiLing Pang and her family visited San Luis Obispo County and joined us for one of our zipline canopy tours. In her recent review of the experience, she writes, “The youngest in our group was 6 and grandpa was 73 and we were all having a blast together. This will be one of those memories we’ll treasure as a family…An unusual and very family-friendly way to experience wine country.”
