There’s more to do in Napa Valley than just wine tasting
Silverado Resort is the ideal place to experience it all
Silverado Resort in Napa Valley

Tell someone you're going to Napa Valley, and it conjures images of rolling vineyards and wine tastings. Both are good things to be sure, but there's more to do in Napa than sample fermented grapes. And that's good news for travelers who don't drink, want to explore a different side of Napa, or simply prefer other pursuits.

Napa Valley's wine country reputation, while well-earned, can overshadow what is a legitimately diverse playground. There are championship golf courses, world-class spas, hiking trails, a walkable downtown, and some of the best dining in the country. And it's all easily accessible, whether these activities are the focus of your trip or something to squeeze in between tasting rooms.

My younger sister works in tech and lives her best life in the West Village. When she first moved to New York, she developed a simple strategy for choosing restaurants: open Instagram or TikTok, identify the week's viral sensation, and fight for a reservation.

As the weeks passed and photos from the latest algorithmic darlings poured into our text thread, I watched with mounting alarm. My sweet little sister—so innocent, so naïve—lost to the wicked spell of the influencer. The squandered income! The wasted chances for truly great meals! When she mentioned what she'd spent for dinner at The Corner Store, I finally reached my breaking point. I vowed to show my wayward sibling the light.
