About Jolon


Jolon California is home to the most delectable and classical central California Spanish table fare this side of Matamoras! The town of Jolon was established in the 1860s in order to meet the needs of Gold Rush miners traveling the Los Burros Mining District, all the way up to Eureka California. This small yet, charming community offers the best of both worlds with unexplored mines and hilly areas as well as the beautiful and majestic Pacific Ocean. Many people journey to your central California in order to take part in the annual Monarch Butterfly Festival that occurs every year in Jolon California. It is best to phone ahead or search on the Internet for hotel accommodations as this can be a challenge in Jolon.

The vastly-read and timelessly popular writer John Steinbeck used the town of Jolon California as a setting for the book ‘To a God Unknown’, which was on the New York Times Best-Seller List, seven straight months! Make the most out of the vacation and see all that Jolon California has to offer!
