Napa River Ecological Reserve On the cross road between Yountville and the Silverado Trail, take a break at the Napa River Ecological Reserve. Trails take you to the Napa River, where you can dabble your toes and play on the sandy river bank. In spring, there are wildflowers and butterflies, in summer, keep your eye out for California quail in the bushes, in autumn, you'll see ducks on the water. Tip: In winter, the Napa River can be a strong, rushing river, don't wade at that time. |
