EXPLORE JULIAN
A premier mountain getaway,
just an hour east of San Diego.
Nestled in the picturesque Cuyamaca Mountains, Julian is a historic gold mining town that offers a charming escape across four distinct seasons. Spring bursts with daffodils and lilacs, summer invites hiking and star-gazing, fall is known for apple harvests and brilliant foliage, and winter brings snowfall and crisp mountain air. Wander quaint streets lined with specialty shops, explore local wineries, visit historic gold mines, and savor Julian’s famous apple pie. Whether you’re here for outdoor adventures, cozy gatherings, or a taste of history, Julian offers something for everyone.
