Templeton

Breathe easy in Templeton, where Old West spirit meets the vines just south of Paso Robles in northern SLO CAL (San Luis Obispo County). Ranch roads wind past heritage oaks and antique barns while mom and pop businesses enliven Main Street. Hunt for antiques and farm-fresh finds at every turn—not to mention warm hospitality. With gap-cooled breezes and small-town soul, Templeton pairs country charm with world-class wine for an experience that's as grounded as it is timeless.

Popular Things to Do 

Wander through the Saturday farmers market for just-picked produce beneath the historic feed and grain silo, then visit a vintage rail depot turned museum where Model Ts gleam. Savor bold reds along scenic backroads or explore Tin City's creative hub of cideries, breweries and artisan makers. Picnic beneath shady oaks, catch live music at a hometown beer garden, then watch golden light spill over vineyard hills as the day winds down and the dancing heats up.
