Both of these towns are beautiful classic, gold-country towns. Grass Valley has recently closed Mill St. to cars, so you can explore this beautiful street on foot. The Lazy Dog Chocolateria has home-made drumstick ice cream cones in incredible flavors! Nevada City has more hills to navigate, but has immense amounts of charm. Broad St. and Commercial St. are their main thoroughfares, with plenty of restaurants and local artist shops to explore. In a few short months, they will be prepping for the annual Dickens Fair, which runs through most of December.
This is where we took our engagement photos! It was below 50F, but we still had a wonderful time. The trail is relatively flat and, if you would like, you can see if you can find the locations we took the photos in our gallery along your walk. Happy hunting!
The Nevada City area is known for its local beauty and proximity to the Wild and Scenic Yuba River--the river Asia worked with the most during her time working here at the South Yuba River Citizens League as an Americorps member. We encourage you to get out and explore, weather permitting
