Old Sac is a classic tourist attraction that holds a lot of interest for locals, too! From Evangeline's costume shop to the crab shack on the water, this historic setting will bring you lots to explore in a small footprint. Great for strolling around and window shopping!
Though it doubles as Spencer's day-to-day workspace, the State Capitol building is home to an incredible museum that displays original government history! You can walk through the colonial halls and make your way onto the upper deck of the senate and assembly floors to observe real-time legislation in the works.
This trail is great for riding bikes, but also for walking/jogging! We have spent a lot of time on it in the East Sacramento area, but the trail spans all the way from Old Sacramento to Folsom. The nature walk follows the river and provides a great reprieve from the city's hustle and bustle on whatever stretch of it you take. If you want recommendations, feel free to reach out to us! We also highly recommend the trails in Folsom as well as Placerville/Auburn.
