These Airbnbs Near Pinnacles National Park Highlight California’s Natural Beauty

Formed by an ancient volcanic eruption, the craggy ​​monoliths of the Pinnacles National Park rise out of the southern end of the Gabilan Range. Hiking, rock climbing, and exploring the talus cave systems are the key activities in this patch of Central California wilderness. Pay attention to the sky and you may catch a glimpse of a golden eagle or California condor. In terms of where to stay near the Pinnacles, vineyard digs dot the approach to the West Entrance while accommodation on the eastern perimeter is even more remote. These incredible Airbnbs near Pinnacles National Park include ranches, winery homes, and upscale glamping.
