With modern technology at our fingertips, we don’t have to miss out on all of our favorite adventures. Take a look at a few spots in Marin you can check out right now, via virtual tour!

 

Go to the Headlands

Using Street View by Google Maps, you can safely navigate through the Marin Headlands with just a click of your mouse or a swipe of your finger. The Parks Conservancy helped map some of these trails in 2013, so some images may be outdated, but it can still be a breathtaking experience nonetheless. Walk along the Coastal Trail, “hike” Middle Green Gulch, and view the dizzying heights above Rodeo Beach.

 

Feel the Wonder

If you’re looking for an artsy experience, the Marin Art and Garden Center features virtual tours of the exhibit Rooted in Wonder. You get to join MAGC Events Manager Stacey Kamp as she walks you through The Studio exploring this exhibit by Painter Frances McCormack and interdisciplinary artist Miya Hannan.

 

Visit a Castle

If you’d like to take a look at a real-live castle in our backyard, drop by the San Francisco Theological Seminary in San Anselmo. This walking virtual tour offers a glimpse into the fascinating history and purpose of the campus, as well as amazing 360-degree views of the surrounding areas. Be sure to “drop by” Montgomery Tower for an amazing bird’s eye view!

 

Bring Nature Home

You can explore the wonders of Audobon Canyon Ranch via their Vimeo page. Created by Audubon Canyon Ranch staff and volunteers, enjoy a look at caterpillars, bird nesting boxes, wildflowers, and other flora and fauna in the conservancy.

 

Get Your (Contemporary) Art On

The Marin Museum of Contemporary Art (Marin MOCA) is holding virtual tours of their ongoing exhibitions while the museum remains temporarily closed. Check out their current display, Art Imitating Life at their website.

 

Drop by the Farm

While Point Reyes Farmstead Cheese Company remains closed to the public, you can still catch a peek at the goings on in the farm with their virtual tours. And if you start craving for their delicious offerings, you can even enjoy a Zoom tasting experience, where you order a cheese kit and attend a Zoom class where a PRFC Representative will guide you through the cheeses to teach you how to taste, talk about the various flavor profiles, plus give you food and beverage pairing suggestions and tips on how to cook with and store your orders.
