Set along the beautiful Sonoma County coastline, the
Russian River coast is home to many spectacular parks and several charming towns.
The river enters the ocean just as it runs past the town of Jenner. The river's
mouth is also the start of a state owned (public access) section of coastline
which runs 10 miles south to Bodega Bay. North of Jenner the coastline becomes
more rugged and dramatic and makes for great a great scenic drive to visit the
historical Fort Ross, Gualala or one of the parks. |
