Hearst Castle Ride & Drive
In 1919 William Randolph Hearst told architect Julia Morgan: "Miss Morgan, we are tired of camping out in the open at the ranch in San Simeon and I would like to build a little something."
By 1947, Hearst and Morgan had created "La Cuesta Encantada" - The Enchanted Hill - an estate of 165 rooms, 61 bathrooms and 127 acres of gardens, terraces, pools and walkways.
The Hearst Castle is now a San Simeon State Historical Monument.
Join us for what will be one of our best 2016 FCA driving events!
Our weekend will begin Friday morning when after discussing our secret route, we will depart to some of the most amazing back-roads in Southern California. (Those who have participated on our previous Hearst Castle events know what we are talking about...)
After driving for a few hours, we will stop for lunch (not included in event cost) and continue to our exclusive hotel along the coast. Upon arrival and after checking in we will depart on a sunset ship cruise of Morro Bay. A light meal will be included on the ship.
On Saturday morning after having breakfast at the hotel we will drive to Hearst Castle for a private guided tour. We will return to the hotel early afternoon to relax or if you're inclined explore the Morro Bay and Cambria areas. A cocktail reception, dinner and who knows what else will wrap up the evening.
On Sunday morning we will have breakfast at the hotel, after which you are free to return home or stay and enjoy and explore the area further.
We look forward seeing you and enjoying a great getaway weekend!!
