Lone Cypress

Member Rating: ***** 5.0 | Rate It

Fodor's Review:

The most-photographed tree along 17-Mile Drive is the weather-sculpted Lone Cypress, which grows out of a precipitous outcropping above the waves about 1 1/2 mi up the road from Pebble Beach Golf Links. You can stop for a view of the Lone Cypress at a parking area, but you can't walk out to the tree.

A Short Drive

Posted by kjdandjbd from California on 8/14/07
It is worth the drive through Pebble Beach to see this tree, it is a tourist spot so it will probably have lots of people around it year-round, but it is truely majestic! My husband and I went to see it on a gloomy sullen afternoon and it was so beautiful then too, even in the rain.

Experience: 5.0 Ease: 5.0 Value: 5.0 Don't Miss: 5.0 RATING: 5.0
