    • City of Ukiah

    The most desirable destinations reward the efforts we make to visit them. Perfectly situated along HWY 101 between Eureka and San Francisco, Ukiah welcomes you whether you're traveling through, or stopping by for a longer visit.


    We are close by, but feel off-the-beaten path. From vineyards and wineries, to towering redwood trees, Ukiah and the Ukiah Valley have plenty to offer all year-round, whether you visit in the warm, dry summer months, or would rather sit in front of a crackling fire during the fall and winter.

    With our scenic location, just getting here is beautiful and easy. However, there are so many one-of-a-kind experiences, that you'll definitely want to check out some of our featured activities and events.
