Fun Things To Do in Grass Valley, CA

A short journey off Interstate 80 on historic Highway 49 takes travelers to the serene, picturesque city of Grass Valley, California. Nestled in the Sierra Foothills of Nevada County, in close proximity to Auburn and Nevada City, Grass Valley will transport you back to the Gold Rush era where historic buildings and landmarks abound.

But, Grass Valley has a modern side where downtown shopping, wine tasting, music and entertainment and five-star restaurants indulge tourists and local inhabitants. Many specialty stores and boutique shops invite window-shoppers along Grass Valley's Main and Mill Streets. Popular Grass Valley restaurants include Cirino's at Main Street, Kane's and Tofanelli's, while Dorado Chocolates create many tantalizing confectionary delights. And, there’s no better time to visit the many Grass Valley area wine tasting and wineries than at harvest time, when autumn foliage is in full color. Among Grass Valley accommodations is the iconic and historic 1860's Holbrooke Hotel, plus many fine Victorian bed and breakfast inns, and modern lodging like the Holiday Inn Express.

Local Grass Valley events and festivals include the Nevada County Fair, Farmers Market, Celtic Fair, Music in The Mountains, the annual Classic Car Show and the Draft Horse Classic.
