Cow Heaven: A Self-Guided Driving Tour from Point Reyes Seashore to Tomales

Overview

A 21-mile self-guided audio driving tour from Point Reyes National Seashore to the town of Tomales.

Bill and Bob are part of a rich agricultural community of dairy farmers, cattle and sheep ranchers and oyster growers in West Marin County. How was this rural paradise, so close to a major metropolitan area, saved from development? A lot of the credit goes to two women who came up with a unique idea...

Interesting and informative audio but not a tour. Provided interest facts about the general area but did not point out sites or history tied to the route. Would have been better to read as an article.

My favorite part of the tour was learning how this beautiful, unique landscape was saved by the work of dairy farmers and local environmentalists. Amazing what can be accomplished by people listening to each other and working together. I enjoyed this tour so much, I took the Cow Heaven tour too.
