Old La Honda Road

Highlight (Segment) • Climb

3 miles of great winding mountain road. It ascends from the Palo Alto side up to the Skyline road. Quite narrow in places and fairly steep, but only light car use means this is a fun road climb.

Alice's Restaurant at La Honda and Skyline Junction

Highlight • Restaurant

Great place for a break in a beautiful, peaceful spot among the redwoods. The restaurant is popular with locals, motorcyclists, hikers, and cyclists, and is the perfect place for a cold drink after finishing the climb up.

This is where La Ronda Road meets Skyline Boulevard. After the climb, it’s the perfect place to recharge and grab something to eat at one of the nearby restaurants or grocery stores. Alise's Restaurant is a popular one.
