Following the Sculpture Trails in Northern Sonoma County
Walk around — and in some cases on, under, or through — unique and colorful artwork in Sonoma County, where the towns of Geyserville and Cloverdale host sculpture trails.
Stroll, cycle, or drive to each art piece to explore scenic Sonoma Wine Country while checking out impressive art in the great outdoors. Here’s a quick overview of the trails.
Geyserville Sculpture Trail, Geyserville

If you’re heading north on US Highway 101, take the Highway 128 exit; if you’re going south, exit at Canyon Road. Get ready to keep an eye out for striking sights no matter which end of the trail you start at, as there are more than 25 sculptures scattered on this stretch.
Don’t miss “Victory” by Bryan Tedrick, a 25-foot-tall statue of a galloping horse that is fun to see up close in a large open field.

This field is the site of numerous artworks (14 at last count) that comprise the Geyserville Sculpture Trail sponsored by the Geyserville Community Foundation. Here, among others, you’ll also spot ‘Shimmer’ by Hynch Philip, ‘Blue Grass’ by Joe Bologna, ‘Windows’ by David Mudgett, and ‘The Chase’ by Dan Good.
Cloverdale Sculpture Trail, Cloverdale

From US Highway 101, take the Citrus Fair Drive exit in Cloverdale to view larger-than-life artwork around downtown, where 12 different sculptures are proudly showcased on the trail each year. The Cloverdale Historical Society annually selects and awards artwork for display that ranges from humorous to thought-provoking.
