The autumn foliage also adds a beautiful array of colours to the landscape, particularly in the surrounding parks and along the Russian River.While summer (June to August) can be warm, with temperatures sometimes exceeding 30°C, it's also a popular time for visitors due to school holidays and numerous outdoor events.
